I did that, and the interesting thing is that: 1. It takes much longer to hang. 2. Once it hangs, the stacktraces are the same. 3 (and this is the kicker). The thing starts working again after a couple (+/- 5) minutes ????????? 1. can probably be explained by the fact that I didn't compile with any optimization. Can you tell me what CFLAGS the binary distro uses? 2. I don't know (are there other tools I can use?), and 3. I frankly don't understand. I know for sure that with the stock 8.1.3 it would not revive itself (I let it running for a *long* time). > > If you can, it'd be interesting to see it from the pre-SP1 install as > well - once it hangs.

I seem to remember we made ourselves dependend on 8.1 somehow, but will check. jan -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Jan de Visser [EMAIL PROTECTED] Baruk Khazad!
