Hi,
I investigated the problem regarding estimate problems on a host with
many filesystems a bit. I think I have found out what goes wrong.
It's not the size of the datagram, it's the maximum size of a pipe's buffer.
The sendsize processes all seem to be stuck waiting for a lock when
trying to write their results to stdout.
Until that time they have written a little more than 4000 bytes to the
pipe to the master sendsize process. This process reads the pipe only
after all children have terminated, so there's a deadlock.
I'm not sure if it's really the master sendsize process on the other end
of the pipe or even the amandad process.
Does anybody have an idea about what to do against this?
