DTML documents killing Zope (was RE: [Zope] ZServer dying)

[Mayers, Philip J]

Actually that's not true - it does die sometimes, but more often it hangs.

Regards,
Phil

There's nothing in the logs, and no core dump - it never actually *dies*,
either:

1) The child threads die, and on the following request they respawn
2) Only one child thread dies, the parents parent gets a SIGSTOP and the
process becomes unresponsive.

The application is... complex. I'll try to replicate it the behaviour as a
smaller sample tomorrow...

Cheers,
Phil

Nothing shows up in the log?  Is there a core dump?  I can't replicate
this
using the latest from the 2.3 branch.  Could you send me a .zexp?
