Make sure query killer is installed on all replicas
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

Query killer didn't kill slow queries during the s4 incident (T398448) which prolonged the incident. We should make sure it's properly installed in all of s4 replicas (or better, check it against all core sections)

Event Timeline

Was a case of query killer not being installed or the "normal" issue we experienced before: when the host is super overloaded the query killer cannot be fast enough to kill them?

To my understanding, the former. Or at least it was installed but didn't kick in. I quickly killed all of them manually.

I guess someone fixed it? I just checked and the query killer is present everywhere. Per the monitoring, we've already had this: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T254738
