• tw2 infinite loop?

    From Nightfox@VERT/DIGDIST to All on Fri Sep 25 07:41:26 2015
    This morning I noticed that sbbsctrl was using about 85-95% of the CPU, and Iãsaw that a user was logged in running tw2 (in xtrn/tw2). I opened the "spy onãnode" window to see what was happening that might be causing such high CPUãusage, but it looked like nothing was happening on that node. I also noticedãthe user had been logged in for about 5 hours, so I suspect there might haveãbeen an infinite loop running in tw2 somewhere. I closed sbbsctrl andãre-opened it, and now all is fine. I've updated my tw2 files to make sureãthey're all up to date, but I'm wondering if that is a known issue?ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã
