I often run into a situation, where trinity makes no progress, the output is just : ... [913] Regenerating random pages, fd's etc. [watchdog] 94001 iterations. [F:78315 S:15673] [watchdog] Triggering periodic reseed. Currently I do just kill trinity in such a situation after 5 minutes. But I'm wondering if it would makes sense to wait longer ? Here are the appropriate process list (within a user mode linux guest) $> ps axf | grep trinity 906 ? SNs 0:00 | \_ bash -c pkill -9 trinity; M=/mnt/n22; logger M=$M; sudo mount $M; cd $M/w; trinity --children 2 --victims $M/v/victims ; sudo umount $M 911 ?
