Re: Mysterious gap in log files.
Hi! And make sure to put everything in the same file (API, SQL, FLTR, ESCL). That will make it easier to follow. Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se Products from RRR Scandinavia: * RRR|License - Not enough Remedy licenses? Save money by optimizing. * RRR|Log - Performance issues or elusive bugs?

Re: Mysterious gap in log files.
Nope. Nothing - I checked that as wellthe longest SQL statement takes about 0.0176 seconds to complete in the entire log and during this time there's no activity. There's literally NOTHING going on - at least none of the log files indicate anything is going on during this time. There's zero activity.

Re: Mysterious gap in log files.
Hi! Please provide us with the surrounding log lines with the full API-call with all FLTR and SQL lines that belongs to that call. The server performs various internal stuff at times, such as refreshing the ar.cfg-file and throwing out inactive users. These type of thing may show as SQL-rows if SQL is involved. Some of these things does not have an RPC ID attached to them. I would be surprised if this happens in the middle of your call. It should be at the beginning or end of the API... Did you have other users that performed things at the same time? It could affect the responsiveness of the database. One such thing could be the locking of the arschema table.
