The timer seems to have helped. I changed it from 60 to 30000. My compilations routinely take 10-15 minutes per file. Without the change the files in the state directory were being wiped out around a minute after start of a compilation.

It may be the jobs are taking long enough that the monitor thinks the files are just leftover. You could try adjusting the timeout in (iirc) mon.c, and also looking inside the state directory with ls while it's running. -- Martin __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
