Dahlia, I just caught the diagnostics a moment ago and the HDD light
does come on and stay almost solid on for a good minute or so and then
starts to fall off to random momentary flashes every once in a while
(roundabouts the time I am able to regain control of my system again).

Hi Justin, I have observed this on several different systems with
different databases and varying amounts of scripted objects and
regions (ranging from very few to fairly populated). I see very little
CPU use for OpenSim when this is happening but yet the systems hang up
entirely for a while as it's doing it (appx 30 seconds to 1 minute)
and only when the automated diagnostics starts to output its
information to the console. This started back sometime midway through
development of 0.7.5 (if I remember correctly) and then it went away
for for a little while after some commits after it, then reappeared
again. So I'm not exactly sure when it first started. I would think
that git bisect would take a good while to do to track it down since I
would have to wait an hour per test for diagnostics to show up... the
show stats command doesn't seem to invoke this behavior.
Hi Dahlia, I hadn't thought to check my HDD light as it was happening
(due to my desk layout it's a bit difficult to see the light from
where I sit; so I had never just casually glanced over to look.) I
will keep an eye out for the HDD light when it does it again though.

I'm extremely surprised to hear this - no significant CPU operations
are involved in printing this information. Are you absolutely sure
that some other timed script isn't running at the same time? Also,
when did this problem start?

Hello all,
I was wondering if it is possible to configure how often the
automated simulator diagnostics is ran, and if so, where at?
It seems like every hour when the diagnostics is ran it results in
hanging my entire system up for about 30 - 45 seconds
which results in a variety of interesting things such as the viewer
hanging up entirely for that duration, music stops
playing if listening to music via external media player, other
programs hang up, etc. It also tends to translate to lag
for other people connected to my setup for about that long as well.
I know the ideal situation would be to run OpenSim on a system
dedicated to that; but right now I have no choice but to
run it on the system that I do all my other daily things on. So I
would like to configure diagnostics to run every
say... 8 hours or so? It would make the system hangs a bit more
bearable :)
If it's not configurable externally I'm willing to stick my head
into the source code and change it manually there if
need be; if I could be pointed to the file and location in the code
to change it... It's just driving me insane lol.
Thanks!
