[galaxy-dev] restarting multiple web workers

Hi, I’m using the multiple web server stuff described here: https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Performance/Scaling

that seems to address the responsiveness issues i see when many users are active.

However, when i add a new tool - it does not alway show up (only for one of the workers maybe?)

Right now I’m restarting, but this costs a minute or two of downtime as the server starts up.

Has anyone experimented with rolling restarts of web server processes?

Alternatively, has anyone found a good way to speed up the startup process?

Thanks!

Brad
