Re: mollases mode
I had a similar problem on windows. I had an application which had to run 24/7 and which would slow down after a couple of days. I was storing all communication in and out in a field which was supposed to be truncated to 200 lines but, the truncation code didn't work right. This meant that the field just kept growing. I also noticed that my memory usage hadn't increased dramatically but my processor usage did go high. Basically, check to see if you have a field or a variable which is being allowed to grow infinitely. Since it's a CGI, I suspect you're doing some logging Rich Mooney Payne Sparkman Mfg. I do log but I checked that the truncation works as expected. I am starting to suspect that I have an infinite loop somewhere in a seldom used chunk of code. I am planning to slave through the logs when I find some spare time. Robert ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
Re: mollases mode
Has anyone seen MC switching into a mollases mode? I have seen that several times and attributed it to other factors, but I just had it occuring in rather pure conditions, so I am now quite certain that it is MC itself. When it gets into this modus, MC is so slow to respond to appleevents (we are talking Mac OS here) that most of them time out. I can click to switch to Finder or other app (it takes a while but eventually happens) and other apps are working fine. In this modus, MC takes a very long time before it decides to redraw windows. It does not respond to mouse clicks or command keys. Sending quit appleevent produces an error that applescript dictionary is not available. Memory does not seem to be a factor. At least there is plenty of free memory in the system and the utilization bar as shown by finder indicates that MC has plenty of heap space. A common factor in each case is that it has been running as cgi for a couple days. (Yes, it switches into this modus with no user present at the keyboard.) Same thing for 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 under OS either 8.6 or 9.2.2. I had a similar problem on windows. I had an application which had to run 24/7 and which would slow down after a couple of days.
