Now with btop 1.4.7 it is less obvious when it freezes, as the info panes become
static, while the time display keeps updating, whereas in the previous release,
the time display also froze, making the need for a restart more obvious.
Thanks for the report. Two questions.
(1) When btop freezes, are all the info panes stopped,
while the time on the top middle is updating?
As far as I can tell, nothing else, other than the top middle timestamp (update
period 60000ms), is being obviously updated e.g. uptime freezes.
(2) How often the issue happens?
It happens every few days: Cygwin services run continuously between Cygwin Setup
upgrade runs or Windows patch restarts (the weekend before Patch Tuesdays).
I stay logged in running Xwin between those Cygwin startups.
That’s less frequent than I expected.
Are you using btop 1.4.7 with cygwin 3.6.10?
It was infrequent in the previous release.
Yes I was and am running Cygwin 3.6.10.
Thanks very much for the quick update.
I am now running 1.4.7-2 and will report back in a few days.
