This test on Linux was extremely slow, since in Tcl we can't enable
easily tcp-nodelay, so the busy loop used to take *a lot* with bigger
writes. Fixed using pipelining.
--stat mode already used to reconnect automatically if the server is no
longer available. This is useful since this is an interactive mode used
for debugging, however the same applies to --latency and --latency-dist
modes, so now both use the reconnecting command execution as well.
The reconnection code was modified to use basic VT100 escape sequences
in order to play better with different kinds of output on the screen
when the reconnection happens, and to hide the reconnection attempt
output when finally the reconnection happens.
So far not able to find a color palette within the 256 colors which is
not confusing. However I believe it is a possible task, so will try
better later.
This also makes it backward compatible in the usage, but for the command
name. However the old command name was less obvious so it is worth to
break it probably.
With the new setup the program main can perform argument parsing and
everything else useful for an RDB check regardless of the Redis server
itself.
When trying to debug sentinel connections or max connections errors it
would be very useful to have the ability to see the list of connected
clients to a running sentinel. At the same time it would be very helpful
to be able to name each sentinel connection or kill offending clients.
This commits adds the already defined CLIENT commands back to Redis
Sentinel.
This improves PFAIL -> FAIL switch. Too late at this point in the RC
releases to add proper PFAIL/FAIL separate dictionary to do this in a
less randomized way. Tested in practice with experiments that this
helps. PFAIL -> FAIL average with 20 nodes and node-timeout set to 5
seconds takes 2.5 seconds without this commit, 1 second with this
commit.
Otherwise it is impossible to receive the majority of failure reports in
the node_timeout*2 window in larger clusters.
Still with a 200 nodes cluster, 20 gossip sections are a very reasonable
amount of bytes to send.
A side effect of this change is also fater cluster nodes joins for large
clusters, because the cluster layout makes less time to propagate.
