Subject:   Silent stoppage building www/chromium
Message-ID:  <20200830154829.GA53905@www.zefox.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Trying again to compile www/chromium on a Pi3B. Ports are at 546965,
system is at r364900. Root is a USB mechanical hard disk, with swap
on both hard disk and microSD.

Something, not sure what, seems to stall silently. The host is still
responsive, but sluggish, as if something is very busy. Top reports

Both swap devices are busy, but neither seems saturated and much higher
swap usage has been observed before without the system getting stuck.

If anybody can suggest something to try or explore please do.

Thanks for reading,
