bbtest-net to hobbitd problem

Hi Henrik,

i'm having a problem:
-bbtest-net reports one or two "Whoops ! bb failed to send message - timeout" in
the report
-which is causing a bunch of net test to go purple (pretty embarrasing..)
-i tried to play with BBMAXMSGSPERCOMBO and BBSLEEPBETWEENMSGS, but doesnt seem
to have any effect...
-once in while bbtest-net does report everything fine to hobbitd, without any
changes on the server



here's the output from bbtest-net --debug where the whoops happens:
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Recipient listed as '127.0.0.1'
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Standard BB protocol on port 1985
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Will connect to address 127.0.0.1 port 1985
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Connect status is 0
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Sent 65532 bytes
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Sent 81921 bytes
2005-08-01 13:15:24 Sent 49152 bytes
2005-08-01 13:15:29 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - timeout


it looks like bbtest-net actually connected to hobbitd !
-> could bbtest-net re-open a connection and resend the affected statuses when a
oops happens ?


later in the bbtest-net log i see this, which is different since i suppose
bbtest-net got a connection closed the first try:
2005-08-01 13:15:29 Recipient listed as '127.0.0.1'
2005-08-01 13:15:29 Standard BB protocol on port 1985

2005-08-01 13:15:34 Timeout while talking to bbd at 127.0.0.1:1985 - retrying
2005-08-01 13:15:35 Will connect to address 127.0.0.1 port 1985
2005-08-01 13:15:35 Connect status is 0
2005-08-01 13:15:35 Sent 466 bytes
2005-08-01 13:15:35 Closing connection



Any idea of what could be going in hobbitd ?
(my understanding is that hobbitd kind of drops heavy status connections..)
