When I option click on a 4D command in v15 I get taken to a web page on that

sometimes I end up, after much redirecting, to a random page.
Is there a right way to do this? Are the v15 R docs

I went to another machine and found out some more info. This appears to be a
random problem which makes it difficult to reproduce and track down.
Here is what I can summarize on the problem:

unresponsive vs the delay process

I would say it is "a" way to use a Semaphore and the idea that it is a
limit is the way that I've always understood it.
The fact that it's a gobal semaphore means that it controls access to the
code that follows and the scope of that is for all machines connected to
the server. The semaph

I did not know you could do that on a live server running a compiled

My understanding is that, given that 4D's scheduler has been "cooperative
multitasking" for virtually all of its history, the Idle command instructs
the current process to yield time to other processes. Without the While…End

Interesting. I did some more digging and here is what I’ve found.
I have 13 Macs that run up to 10 databases on each machine of differing 4D
versions (usually 4Dv13.4, 4Dv15R5 and 4Dv16.0) - all are 32 bit. I focused
on 2.

Did you also see the 4D Server UI stop updating? I'm referring to the server
monitor user interface that graphs the CPU time, etc.
When this has happened to our mirror servers, those graphs stop updating. The
server can still be manipulated, but those graphs don't update and the stored

Hi Keith,
Yes, that’s why I was curious about the machine up time. It would be curious if
it was close to 24.86 days, for example.

Hi David,
Good to have more information—thanks! I’m curious, do you know what the machine

I can confirm that this is caused by the delay process. In fact, all of my
server processes that use delay process stopped on the same day. They had
different levels of delay times set.
As per your suggestion, I went into Runtime Explorer on the Server and typed
resume process (pid) and they
