Hi all,
if you have an SL3 node running an LCG info provider (typically CE and SE),
please ensure it has LANG=C in its environment, otherwise the info provider
may run 10 times as slow due to a perl bug in handling UTF-8 encodings!
That can (occasionally) make it drop out of any BDII that queries the GRIS!
The easiest is to add the following line to /etc/sysconfig/globus:
export LANG=C
(Yes, only that line has "export".)
This will be standard in the next release.
