I took the liberty of having a look at the fossil source in that repo. It seems to be missing the fossil-time-backward patch. That's on the current 9legacy distribution ISO (built 14 April 2023), and probably on several previous ones as it went into the 9legacy git in April 2022. It's a two-line patch which fixes a bug where the periodic sync process can stop working if the system clock goes backwards. The consequences of that are failure to update on-disk file data, and exhaustion of the in-memory cache buffers which results in deadlock. From memory, I think it could also make the sync process go into a 100% cpu loop which might look like deadlock. If you apply that patch, I hope that you will find some of the problems you've been observing will be cleared up. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tbbcec90e3dd997e1-M2a3d10ef36b09cf392eda1c2 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
