Topicbox-Message-UUID: 65f1e044-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 Hi, I executed the fossil 'sync' command when my terminal was under moderate I/O load earlier today. Fossil seems to have locked up. Has anyone seen anything like this? I have a dump of the first 256mb of kernel memory and all physical memory. Are there any structures that are kept at reasonably constant places in memory, so that I can start trawling them to see what fossil was doing when it died? Thanks, -- vs
