For the past month or two I've been dealing with an issue where pound will randomly hang for several minutes, and then eventually correct itself. Manually restarting the process will also correct this. I think it has to do with the load on the server. We increased the load in the time frame mentioned, though not by anything unreasonable. I spun up a new VM and tried both the custom PCI version from github as well as the latest stable 2.7 release, but both have the same issue. We were running several sites plus Exchange OWA/ActiveSync/Outlook Anywhere on the system, but as of Thursday are only running Exchange services, and the problem persists. Exchange services are where the increased load came from as we are now running 20 or so laptops through Outlook Anywhere constantly, as opposed to maybe half that before. I tried increasing the number of files open allowed, per a mailing list thread from some time back, but it's still having the issue. I am monitoring it with a script I wrote to check for availability, which will email me and restart the service if it's down. Everything was fine from last evening until around 8 this morning, when people started working again, so it seems it's connected to the Outlook Anywhere connections, since that's what would have started around that time this morning. ActiveSync runs 24/7, so if that was the problem it shouldn't have stopped hanging during the off-hours. I don't see anything in the logs that appears to be helpful, so I'm hoping someone here can suggest a debug log setting or a fix, or anything. Log level is currently set to 2. Is there a way to get more information than that?
