[Dxspider-support] Cluster hangs

[T3]

I think were going tin the wrong direction with this
the problem are the hangups, hangups are caused from extreme fast access 
of cluster files, and the slow perl.
 *if* thats what the problem is, im seeing more excess traffic slam the 
cluster
while its trying to process spots

ive been watching backbone traffic and the PC16 and 17 are out of 
control along with dupe file access
its next to impossible to RF backbone link now even at 9.6K to another 
cluster, My 9.6K radio is
having trouble with the excess backbone fat. If this don't get cleared 
up. I'll be forced to Jump
ship to another flavor of cluster. to try to save these expensive radio 
equipment.

what ive been seeing for a year now in windows (and dealing with it) is 
now going on in Linux Clusters

Yes we made some improvement, but its starting to look like we steped 
backwards a couple of
steps with the basic platform, forgetting the heavy usage during contest 
time.
