Half a year ago, I was working on the problem. Socket operations get sometimes interrupted. We have found out that it occurs sometime after GC. It was not quite easy as the application was quite big and situation - quite rare. Given the fact, that current implementation of monitor reservation code can stop other thread in quite random fashion we should have rock solid support of EINTR handling everywhere the select(), poll() calls is used. -- Ivan Intel Enterprise Solutions Software Division
