# HMAC File Server Queue Resilience Enhancement Summary
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
I've reviewed and enhanced the queuing system in HMAC File Server 3.2 Ultimate Fixed to make it significantly more robust in handling timeout scenarios. The improvements span multiple layers: configuration, queue management, worker health, and failure recovery.
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Problems Addressed
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **Timeout-Related Queue Failures**
|
||||
- **Problem**: Queued uploads timing out during network interruptions
|
||||
- **Solution**: Adaptive timeouts based on file size, keep-alive monitoring, and resumable uploads
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **Queue Overflow During High Load**
|
||||
- **Problem**: Memory queues filling up and rejecting new uploads
|
||||
- **Solution**: Disk spillover, priority queuing, and backpressure control
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. **Worker Health and Failure Detection**
|
||||
- **Problem**: Failed workers blocking queue processing
|
||||
- **Solution**: Continuous health monitoring, circuit breakers, and automatic recovery
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **Network Interruption Recovery**
|
||||
- **Problem**: Lost uploads during network switching or disconnections
|
||||
- **Solution**: Persistent queue state, upload session recovery, and graceful degradation
|
||||
|
||||
## Enhanced Configuration Structure
|
||||
|
||||
### Server-Level Resilience (`[server]` section)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# NEW: Advanced timeout handling
|
||||
graceful_shutdown_timeout = "300s" # Complete active uploads before shutdown
|
||||
request_timeout = "7200s" # 2-hour maximum for large files
|
||||
upload_stall_timeout = "600s" # Detect stalled uploads
|
||||
max_concurrent_uploads = 100 # Prevent resource exhaustion
|
||||
connection_pool_size = 200 # Manage connection resources
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Enhanced Worker Management (`[workers]` section)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# NEW: Queue robustness features
|
||||
queue_timeout = "300s" # Max queue wait time
|
||||
priority_queue_enabled = true # Separate queues by file size
|
||||
large_file_queue_size = 20 # Dedicated large file queue
|
||||
circuit_breaker_enabled = true # Automatic failure detection
|
||||
queue_backpressure_threshold = 0.8 # Gradual slowdown vs hard rejection
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Advanced Queue Resilience (`[queue_resilience]` section - NEW)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# Spillover and persistence
|
||||
spillover_to_disk = true # Use disk when memory is full
|
||||
persistent_queue = true # Survive server restarts
|
||||
queue_recovery_enabled = true # Restore queue state after restart
|
||||
|
||||
# Health monitoring
|
||||
dead_letter_queue_enabled = true # Handle persistently failing uploads
|
||||
queue_health_check_interval = "15s" # Continuous monitoring
|
||||
emergency_mode_threshold = 0.95 # Last-resort protection
|
||||
|
||||
# Priority management
|
||||
priority_levels = 3 # High/Medium/Low priority queues
|
||||
priority_aging_enabled = true # Prevent starvation
|
||||
load_balancing_strategy = "least_connections"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Comprehensive Timeout Configuration (`[timeouts]` section)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# NEW: Adaptive timeouts by file size
|
||||
small_file_timeout = "60s" # < 10MB files
|
||||
medium_file_timeout = "600s" # 10MB-100MB files
|
||||
large_file_timeout = "3600s" # 100MB-1GB files
|
||||
huge_file_timeout = "7200s" # > 1GB files
|
||||
|
||||
# NEW: Connection resilience
|
||||
keep_alive_probe_interval = "30s" # Detect network issues
|
||||
keep_alive_probe_count = 9 # Retries before giving up
|
||||
|
||||
# NEW: Intelligent retry logic
|
||||
retry_base_delay = "1s" # Exponential backoff starting point
|
||||
retry_max_delay = "60s" # Maximum backoff delay
|
||||
max_retry_attempts = 5 # Retry limit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Resilience Features
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **Multi-Tier Queue Architecture**
|
||||
- **High Priority Queue**: Small files, urgent uploads
|
||||
- **Medium Priority Queue**: Regular uploads
|
||||
- **Low Priority Queue**: Large files, background uploads
|
||||
- **Disk Spillover**: Unlimited capacity fallback
|
||||
- **Dead Letter Queue**: Failed uploads for manual intervention
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **Intelligent Timeout Management**
|
||||
- **Adaptive Timeouts**: Different limits based on file size
|
||||
- **Progress Monitoring**: Distinguish between slow and stalled transfers
|
||||
- **Keep-Alive Probing**: Early detection of network issues
|
||||
- **Graceful Degradation**: Slow down rather than fail hard
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. **Circuit Breaker Pattern**
|
||||
- **Failure Detection**: Automatic detection of systemic issues
|
||||
- **Fail-Fast**: Prevent cascade failures during outages
|
||||
- **Auto-Recovery**: Intelligent retry after issues resolve
|
||||
- **Metrics Integration**: Observable failure patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **Worker Health Monitoring**
|
||||
- **Continuous Monitoring**: Regular health checks for all workers
|
||||
- **Performance Tracking**: Average processing time and error rates
|
||||
- **Automatic Recovery**: Restart failed workers automatically
|
||||
- **Load Balancing**: Route work to healthiest workers
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. **Queue Persistence and Recovery**
|
||||
- **State Persistence**: Queue contents survive server restarts
|
||||
- **Session Recovery**: Resume interrupted uploads automatically
|
||||
- **Redis Integration**: Distributed queue state for clustering
|
||||
- **Disk Fallback**: Local persistence when Redis unavailable
|
||||
|
||||
## Timeout Scenario Handling
|
||||
|
||||
### Network Interruption Recovery
|
||||
```
|
||||
User uploads 1GB file → Network switches from WiFi to 4G
|
||||
├── Upload session persisted to Redis/disk
|
||||
├── Keep-alive probes detect network change
|
||||
├── Upload pauses gracefully (no data loss)
|
||||
├── Network restored after 30 seconds
|
||||
├── Upload session recovered from persistence
|
||||
└── Upload resumes from last completed chunk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Server Overload Protection
|
||||
```
|
||||
100 concurrent uploads overwhelm server
|
||||
├── Queue reaches 80% capacity (backpressure threshold)
|
||||
├── New uploads get delayed (not rejected)
|
||||
├── Circuit breaker monitors failure rate
|
||||
├── Large files moved to disk spillover
|
||||
├── Priority queue ensures small files continue
|
||||
└── System degrades gracefully under load
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Application Restart Robustness
|
||||
```
|
||||
Server restart during active uploads
|
||||
├── Graceful shutdown waits 300s for completion
|
||||
├── Active upload sessions persisted to disk
|
||||
├── Queue state saved to Redis/disk
|
||||
├── Server restarts with new configuration
|
||||
├── Queue state restored from persistence
|
||||
├── Upload sessions recovered automatically
|
||||
└── Clients resume uploads seamlessly
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Impact
|
||||
|
||||
### Memory Usage
|
||||
- **Queue Memory Limit**: Configurable cap on queue memory usage
|
||||
- **Spillover Efficiency**: Only activates when memory queues full
|
||||
- **Garbage Collection**: Regular cleanup of expired items
|
||||
|
||||
### CPU Overhead
|
||||
- **Health Monitoring**: Lightweight checks every 15-30 seconds
|
||||
- **Circuit Breaker**: O(1) operations with atomic counters
|
||||
- **Priority Aging**: Batched operations to minimize impact
|
||||
|
||||
### Disk I/O
|
||||
- **Spillover Optimization**: Sequential writes, batch operations
|
||||
- **Persistence Strategy**: Asynchronous writes, configurable intervals
|
||||
- **Recovery Efficiency**: Parallel restoration of queue state
|
||||
|
||||
