bad news dude ?! `top` shows what's taking most CPU cycles. `pstree -p` shows the ancestors of various processes. It may be easier to debug, if you incrementally kill-off other PIDs, to help isolate the problem Probably if you start the CPU-hogging process, NOT from mc, it still 'hangs'. Then you don't need to involve mc?
