I'm not sure this makes any sense at all. You reconnect a device while some application is not running, you start that application and it starts behaving badly. If that's really the case, the bug is in the device not the application. Note that nbd in linux is single-threaded, ie, it can't handle multiple concurrent requests, and linux nbd client can't submit multiple requests too, so it may be quite slow - like "old good" IDE without command queuing support. /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
