Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Application lags if started from init.d?

    I have a program (pre-compiled binary) that, when started manually on linux, runs fine. It has a CLI that I use to enter commands.

    However if I want to start it up at boot time the program goes very slowly, unusably so. If there is information being printed to the screen for example, it will be printed out in chunks, as if there was a slow baudrate, that kind of thing. Every command I enter is like this, information is printed very slowly.

    What could be happening, what is different from me running this manually after boot rather than from init.d with S99 or something? If I stop the process and relaunch it manually it works fine.

    Try strace to a file from init.d and from a manual run. Maybe it's waiting for some resources?

    Had something similar happen before on a RedHat 6 box. What os are you running?
    If you recreate the issue and stop syslog/rsyslog does it go away?

    Issue here was that when issuing a commend a normal user was starting the process, their default nice level is 19. From boot root was starting the process with a default nice level of 0 causing a lot more CPU cycles to be allocated and intense lag.
