When will GSA ever fix the threading issues....?
Everybody who uses his own lists to "blast" knows that GSA is very fast in the first 1 - 5 mins, and slows down to a damn crawl (useless speeds really) soon after, this problem has existed since day 1.
99% of the time GSA is just sitting there with 0 - 1% cpu usage, no connections open, doing NOTHING, there is zero activity anywhere, this is not isolated to my system(s) either, everybody who is trying the same thing experiences the EXACT same issue.
A very serious bug that makes it 1% as effective as it could be if working as intended.
Seems old threads are not ending properly and it's actually only spawning a handfull of fresh threads for new operations, or whatever it is, there is a MAJOR issue with threading.
How many projects are 'active' for you at once? I've found that the fewer projects you have running at once, the worse this issue is. As an example, I have my VPS set to 300 threads, working with 10 projects, and while it may slip down to a handful of threads when verifying, this is for a very short amount of time, and then picks up again. I can leave my VPS running untouched, and it'll easily submit 100,000+ backlinks in a 24 hour period, and that's with CS set as my first captcha choice, and shanibpo as my second, and making use of my own list.
that is really a lot of spam![]()
Are you sure you are actually using GSA...?
If you can not identify this bug then you are truely not paying attention, no offense, as a spokesperson it's kinda "meh" to tell this guy "it's running fine on my end" when what he describes is something that's happening to me plus everybody in my friendsgroup who uses GSA as well.
And you are running at 50 threads...? How about you run it at 100 - 500 threads and see how well it copes.......not to well (understatement of the year), that i can assure you.
I agree i see the same thing on my dedicated machine !!!
One more question:
When i close GSA and open in again, does scraper start scraping from the begining of keywords list or it remembers last position (before the software was closed) ?
There seems to be problems with the import of keywords with German umlauts. When I import keywords from a keyword tool, then special characters are replaced with strange characters.
Am I doing something wrong?

It's the same for me, it looks like last version killed it.Updated GSA today & now its not verifying or posting links...essentially not working...anyone else having same issues?

After I start GSA it works good for 3-5 minutes, after that it starts to slow down more and more, until it totally stops posting or verifying.
It looks like GSA isn't finding free threads or something similar.
It was working well until I updated from 4.33 to 4.34 (I didn't change anything in my projects, so I don't think the problem is at my end, I had it running for a few weeks at 500-700 threads).
It would be great if Sven could look into what was changed in the last version.
I'm having the same problems. Works for 5-10 minutes than just completely dies off.
Tried three different versions today and all are suffering.
4.28 which was my safe back
4.34 and 4.33
All versions seem to be bottle necking
Over 9hrs spent trying to get some zing into gsa
You can up the threads being used and no difference is made. It just seems to be throttled all the time
Part of it looks like the email verification is at fault. I set all mine to 15 minutes between checks which gives it spurts of speed
No rise in cpu, no rise in memory, just the network connection gets slower and slower
That's what I thought. After importing the keywords looking ugly, but on the result page, everything is ok!Sven said German Umlauts are imported fine as long as you import UTF-8 encoded files
