[Splashy-devel] Splashy 0.2.2 on hold

[Luis]

Well, this is my final report:

- everything works fine now
- when starting from initramfs, keymap.sh stops splashy. if i patch
keymap.sh to use pidof splashy && exit 0. it works, but splashy uses
very high CPU load (80% or more). so, no initramfs yet.

Tim,

Using 100% of the CPU (or increasing the load) is usually related to
file-handles left open or opening quickly many filehandles. I remember
you said something about the socket code and filehandles. How can I
make sure that branch/0.2.2's code for the UNIX socket stuff is in
sync with trunk in terms of filehandle handling? Or just the UNIX
socket code per se.

Otavio,

packages are now on alioth. use that. I will release the included
tarball later today.

"Feliz el hombre que ha hallado sabiduria y el hombre que consigue
discernimiento, porque el tenerla como ganancia es mejor que tener la
plata como ganancia; y el tenerla como producto, [mejor] que el oro
mismo" (Prov 3:13-14).
