Subject: [gentoo-dev] distcc stalling

1 I asked this question over on -user, but nobody responded, so I'm trying here.

3 I'm bootstrapping Gentoo on my Thinkpad 770 (Pentium 233MHz, 40MB RAM). I setup distcc to
4 use with the bootstrap. It is distributing jobs to my Athlon box, but there is a slight
5 problem. It seems to stall every few minutes. The compile will just sit there on the
6 laptop, but if I run '/etc/init.d/distccd restart' on my desktop, the laptop will start
7 going again. It seems to stall like this every few minutes.
8
9 So I don't have to keep manually dealing with this, I opened an xterm on my desktop and
10 ran 'while `sleep 30`; do /etc/init.d/distccd restart; done' to restart distccd every 30
11 seconds to prevent stalls. This is an ugly hack. Does anyone have any clue why I'm getting
12 these stalls?
