>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-151
>      Project: Nutch
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: indexer
>     Versions: 0.8-dev
>  Environment: all
>     Reporter: Paul Baclace
>      Fix For: 0.8-dev
>  Attachments: CommandRunner.060110.patch, CommandRunner.java, 
> CommandRunner.java.patch
>
> I encountered a case where the JVM of a Tasktracker child did not exit after 
> the main thread returned; a thread dump showed only the threads named STDOUT 
> and STDERR from CommandRunner as non-daemon threads, and both were doing a 
> read().
> CommandRunner usually works correctly when the subprocess is expected to be 
> finished before the timeout or when no timeout is used. By _usually_, I mean 
> in the absence of external thread interrupts.  The busy loop that waits for 
> the process to finish has a sleep that is skipped over by an exception; this 
> causes the waiting main thread to compete with the subprocess in a tight loop 
> and effectively reduces the available cpu by 50%.
