poolTester Test Suite Hangs

[VCommitter]

The poolTester test suite is run using ./poolTester runScript -s scripts/master but it hangs and fails to complete when I try to run it. I can run individual poolTester tests such as:

% ./poolTester runScript -s scripts/repeatedHardRestart
% echo $status
0
%

And the killPlumbedWorker script fails with usable debugging information before scripts/master hangs. I don't know which test is causing poolTester to hang.

If I run the tests individually nothing hangs?? Strange:

killPlumbedWorker fails on solaris also. It provides a manifestation of a bug where old generations don't get collected as they should.

I haven't had an issue with the master script hanging though.
You should be able to tell how far it gets by looking in the scratch/testpool1 directory. There will be a subdirectory for each script that the master script runs labeled script0, script1 ... scriptn
The script subdirectories have a log file, so you can see what the pool has logged so far.
