[hobbit] DURATION tag

I typically get the alert message closely followed by the recovery message
which doesn't make sense since if the poll time is 5 min. I would expect the
alert and recovery to have some seperation in them but they seem to have the
same timestamp....I will verify that.

Yes, I am running RC5 plus the patch for the duplicate recovery messages


I need to qualify this...It seems that this is a problem but I can't say for
certain yet since I haven't tried to manually cause high cpu load for <20
minutes but I will try that. I just wanted to see if anyone else had seen
any similar symptoms

The messages you get - are they alert messages or recovery messages?

I suppose you're running RC5 plus the patch I sent you for the duplicate
recovery messages ?
