That's obviously bad. I suppose you killed off the bbtest-net process to
get things running again. If it happens again, could you kill it with
   kill -6 <bbtest-net PID>
This causes it to dump a core-file in the ~hobbit/server/tmp/ directory
which should help me track down where it is hanging.
OK - got that. How can I analyse this to get the information you need?
Did you notice if the process was using a lot of cpu time, or if it
was just completely stalled? Was there an "fping" or "hobbitping"
process hanging around also?
Nope - none at all.

Cheers

Iain
