Came back from lunch and the daemon was started. I haven't seen this long startup before. Does BPC do some house-cleaning each time the daemon starts? The web-GUI for BPC is rather slow now too, for some reason. Needs caching stuff? Uptime was 76d since last reboot, though I doubt that matters. -- /Sorin
