I get this fairly frequently. Where should I look? this is running on a beefy box, Dell 6850 server with 4 procs and 16GB of RAM.
Also, sometimes the WML generation takes 40+ seconds, pushing the run time longer then BBSLEEP.

Have you checked hobbitd.log for any errors ?

"4.2.1d" is not an official version, so what exactly is it that you're running?

The only errors I get in there are a bunch of these...

It's the official 4.2.0 release with a minor patch. We named it 4.2.1 to keep the rpm packages different and it took us 4 builds (a, b, c, and d) to get it the way we wanted it.
We monitor over 500 firewalls so we made the host name a link to the firewall's https admin interface to keep life simple for us (Isn't open source great!). This has been working fine since release. I think it has more to do with the load on the box, but I can't be sure. You can see from the first post that we are monitoring a fair number of hosts and we have some intensive custom external scripts.

Please try the attached patch. It's been available for a while, but isn't part of the "all-in-one" patch.
