Debugging Slow Processes

This module installs a signal handler that will print a stack trace if given a USR2 signal (if your system supports this signal). To print a stack trace to the error log execute:

$ kill -USR2 PID
 

Where PID is the id number of the stalled process.

A shell script will print the stack trace to the console.
