I get this fairly frequently.   Where should I look?  this is running on a
beefy box,  Dell 6850 server with 4 procs and 16GB of RAM.

Also, sometimes the WML generation takes 40+ seconds, pushing the run time
longer then BBSLEEP.

Have you checked hobbitd.log for any errors ?

"4.2.1d" is not an official version, so what exactly is it that you're
running?

The only errors I get in there are a bunch of these...

It's the official 4.2.0 release with a minor patch. We named it 4.2.1
to keep the rpm packages different and it took us 4 builds (a, b, c,
and d) to get it the way we wanted it.

We monitor over 500 firewalls so we made the host name a link to the
firewall's https admin interface to keep life simple for us (Isn't
open source great!).   This has been working fine since release.  I
think it has more to do with the load on the box, but I can't be sure.
  You can see from the first post that we are monitoring a fair number
of hosts and we have some intensive custom external scripts.

Please try the attached patch. It's been available for a while, but
isn't part of the "all-in-one" patch.
