 Replying to [comment:9 felix]:
 > Have you installed all the extension from a local checkout, with the
 "-k" option? That is required to have full source-level debugging of all
 extensions.

 Unfortunately not.  I installed them the usual way ({{{chicken-install
 eggs}}}), except for spiffy, svn-client and qwiki, that I changed to the
 svn dir for each egg and installed them providing the {{{.setup}}} file
 for chicken-install.

 out where all the files are. On what port is the spiffy instance
 listening?

 Let me try to summarize some things (consider {{{prefix = /home/mario
 /wiki-debug}}})

  * the spiffy configuration is {{{prefix/etc/spiffy/spiffy.conf}}}
  * the qwiki configuration is {{{prefix/etc/spiffy/qwiki.conf}}}
  * logs go to {{{prefix/var/log/spiffy}}}

 We've tried setting spiffy's {{{max-connections}}} parameter to 4, it
 doesn't change anything, it seems.  It's still configured that way.

 The server listens on port 8080.

 You can start it by running

 {{{
 cd /home/mario/wiki-debug
 PATH=/home/mario/wiki-debug/chicken/bin/:/home/mario/wiki-debug/bin:$PATH
 csi -s bin/spiffy
 }}}

 It will load the spiffy and qwiki configuration from
 {{{prefix/etc/spiffy/spiffy.conf}}}
  and {{{prefix/etc/spiffy/qwiki.conf}}}

 You can use

 {{{
 wget -r -l5 http://www.call-cc.org:8080
 }}}

 to stress the server.

 I've made a copy of wiki-debug (to wiki-debug.bkp).  Feel free to do
 whatever you want with {{{wiki-debug}}}.  I think you can even copy the
 whole dir to your home if you want (I _think_ you just need to change
 {{{wiki-debug/chroot.scm}}} to point to the new dir -- haven't tested it).

 I've set the permissions in a way that users from the chicken group can
 write to {{{wiki-debug}}}.
