I've been watching what the process is doing. It seems to be writing to the
logfiles, or failing to. I have this:
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:31 [Worker_7] <"..., 102) = 102
This repeats 999 times until:
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:39 [Worker_7] <"..., 101) = 101
There is no line with a matching timestamp in the log file anywhere.
This seems to be a repeating pattern of 9 lines:
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 102) = 102
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 67) = 67
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 69) = 69
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 154) = 154
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 63) = 63
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 65) = 65
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 69) = 69
write(63, "2016-10-03 15:41:32 [Worker_7] <"..., 102) = 102
Until the very last pattern which has 101 instead of 102.
I see this over and over again with different lines and worker numbers.
If I look in the debug for this I see the following occurring for that

I've changed the email address and zero'd the content. So it looks like
normal behaviour of receiving a message but why the 999 writes that look
like they should be going to the log file?
Whilst watching all this, I've just had ASSP go completely unresponsive,
something I've never had before. There's nothing going to the debug file.
Strace is showing lots of resource temporarily unavailable then it freed
up, dumped a load of lines to the log file before hanging again. It seems
to be stuck in a cycle with that now.
I'm also seeing things logged to MainThread_stuck_err.log which is a new
one for me. They are mostly exactly 62 or 65 seconds with one at 61 seconds.
I can't see much in it. There is always at least one thread with the
following:
2016-10-03 16:04:34 Worker(1): last loop start before 0 seconds - signals:
can:1, state:0, never: - last debug step is : wh: 0 - write: - wait: 0.002
All the other messages vary.
It is starting to get noticed and reported now so must be having a
considerable knock on. Absolutely baffled as to what is going on.
