Hello, has anyone had a chance to have a look at this report, and can help making some progress on the investigation? Please let me know if there are more suitable channels for this, since most of the things I see in these mailing lists are patches and code reviews, not really reports and discussions around ongoing issues. Thanks a lot in advance.
