Be glad it doesn't just sit and consume 100% cpu, like it does a couple
of times a day on my box. At that point, hobbitfetch turns yellow and all of the tests being fetched turn purple.
I think it is horribly broken, but I have no workaround, so I'm up for
killing the hobbitfetch process two or three times a day...
Hoo, boy. I'm getting queasier about this all the time. Since the hobbitfetch alert results were meaningless, I put in a NOCOLUMNS:hobbitfetch and did a bb "drop host hobbitfetch". The column went away, and then CAME BACK SPONTANEOUSLY! AiggggHHHH! Oh, wait a minute, hobbitfetch is not in the list of supported columns for NOCOLUMNS. I'm not sure I can stomach doing the column drop every minute in a cron job, so lessee, maybe: group-except hobbitfetch Hobbit Display Server...yeah, yeah, that's it....
