Question thread #118
It's time for another question thread!
The rules:
- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

Re: well howdy
This is mostly just the extant Livejournal to Wodpress import code so I don't know it very well. But I think that the problem is that this code supports retrying after transient failure, and the above is the error it gets when trying to start back up, and I think it is requesting the same item twice because it's iterating through to find out where it needs to pick back up and when it finds it it then throws back to the normal import code which means repeating the value.
But it's a lot of code and I literally started working on this yesterday so I'm not sure. Don't quote me on it. xD
Anyway avoiding that is why I'm trying to find out how much I need to slow this down so I don't get an actual rate block. I've got it really slow right now and did a complete start-over of import and so far it's okay? But I have a lot of entries on my blog here. I don't think the odds of getting through all of them in one pass are high. xD
