Well, turns out, that change for lowestHost DID fix my entire problem...
Unfortunately, when I added debugging I changed a
if (x)
return 0;
to a
if (x)
debug
return 0;
(I hate the fact that openafs code is unmaintainable with tabstop=4. That's
what got me messed up there.)
as soon as I fixed that, it started working after the 75 (BIGTIME) second
delay.
What I'd like to know is - how come no one else has been impacted by that
lowestHost thing? what is different about my setup that it's affecting them
- is no one else running 3 database servers on linux boxes perhaps?
I'm going to back out all my debugging changes and come up with a minimal
set of changes to verify that this indeed corrects the problem.
