All of the various DBI, zlib compres, etc. modules were just 
installed for 6.2.0 cleanly.  This machine is very stable so I
don't think these new Perl modules are corrupt.  How can I 
figure out which module is causing it?

Strict is a good thing here and it seems that unless my Perl
install is very screwed up, looks like 6.2.0 has some minor
errors in the initial startup (as I had indicated).  So, instead of not
having any logging at all, is there a recommended logging setting I
should use to redirect various errors and warnings to a log file?  I'd
like to do something like:

slimserver.pl --some-log-setting >> /var/log/slimserver.log


Anyway, so I left --diag on overnight and the CPU utilization did come
back to zero and the clock is now counting every second.  

The issue is that if I run with the usual --daemon mode when I *first*
install a new version from scratch, sometimes the slimserver will run
for a bit an then silently crash (no errors seen).  If I first run the
new install in --diag mode, it seems to somehow slow things down enough
that things survive over the initialization.  Once this first run
completes doing possibly things like file/DB initialization, things
will then restart ok without the need for additional debugging (see
below).

Any ideas on what might be causing this?  Seems I have identified a
work around which is a good thing and I've confirmed that 6.2.0 is
*MUCH* faster than 6.2Beta.
