Good, skip the cloud stuff, high perf impact on fixes

    I was really enjoying this one despite the false positives (I feel they’re somewhat unavoidable), but my only major issue is when fixing redirects.

    It’s a write operation, but I really didn’t expect it to be THAT heavy, but it pretty much took my site down for a bit when trying to correct 600 redirects in increasingly small batches. My server isn’t the beefiest, it’s the 2CPU 4GB ram Linode VPS, but I didn’t figure I could crash it just fixing redirects.

    I can’t really tell why it even happened, looking at my server logs Load never got too high and while RAM was high, I didn’t hit OOM nor was CPU maxed, capped around 50%. I feel if it had a pacing feature for link fixes like it does for checking links in the first place, that’d probably fix that.

    Still, gotta have something to check links with, it does it’s job just be careful and make sure links are actually bad before fixing.

  • Hey there,

    Thank you for the review and rating, we really appreciate your detailed feedback as that’s what drives progress!

    I’ve passed it along straight to Broken Link Checker developers for further review and consideration ??

    All the best,
