Issue facing on server

Summary Key Issue: A PostgreSQL database restored live while Django services were running caused severe server-wide performance degradation that persisted even after stopping services.

These operations create internal timers (often defaulting to 10 seconds for busy loops) … Read more

Eigen3, setup for Macos and cmake, to compile the CGAL Samples

Summary The issue arises because the Eigen3 package installed via Homebrew is configured as keg-only, meaning it is not automatically linked into the standard system paths (like /usr/local/lib or /usr/local/include) to avoid conflicts with other software. Consequently, CMake cannot locate the Eigen3 configuration files unless explicitly guided. The fix involves setting the Eigen3_DIR variable to … Read more
