Hi all!
We're experiencing some problems with bbproxy that crashes when one of the hobbitds it's sending data to goes down. I've been working to reproduce this problem in a testing environment and it's very easily reproduced. My test environment contains of two hobbitds, a bbproxy and one client, the client is reporting to the hobbitds through the bbproxy. When I stop one of the hobbitds it take about 10-30 seconds before bbproxy crashes.
When this one client sends data every 1 minute the bbproxy will survive one of the hobbitds going down and start sending data to it when it comes up again. However, in our production environment we push one message per second through our bbproxy and when I push one message per second through bbproxy in my testing enviroment I experience the same problem as in my production environment, bbproxy crashes. To recover from this I need to start up the hobbitd again and all of our bbproxys.
I've gathered some data från bbproxy with strace which you could find here: http://amelia.linuxchick.se/bbproxy.strace
