Anyway has anyone else encountered this? Yes, the "makewhatis" cron job kicks off on my home machine at prime Unreal Tournament / Quake 3 Arena time (a little after midnight :o) That produces exactly the symptoms you describe (although Quake 3 is actually "playable" for low values of playable, under that load (!)) It is worth ruling that out as a cause if this was during daylight, though, so it can be investigated further if there is a real problem. > Glen -- /* Bill Crawford, Unix Systems Developer, Ebone (formerly GTS Netcom) */ #include <stddiscl> const char *addresses[] = { "bi...@sy...", "Bil...@eb...", // work "bi...@ne...", "bi...@eb..." // home }; |
