Hi -
I'm not sure anyone cares about this (most likely Seaside users), but
class Socket has some issues with clock-rollover which can be seen on
high load servers that have enough uptime and load.
The problem is caused by Socket>>deadlineSecs: which at the time of the
clock rollover computes a deadline that can never be reached. If you've
seen connections that wouldn't time out apparently at random there is a
chance you have been affected by this type of issue.
Bug (and fix) are posted at http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7343
Cheers,
- Andreas
