Hello
We have a ruby-script for running system tests which talks to a database (to e.g. log each testrun) through a rails application. Sometimes this script freezes completely, only responding to SIGKILL. Have anyone else noticed this or have any idea where to start debugging (I've inherited the code and unfortunately don't know too much about ruby on rails yet...) I have a hunch that the problem is related to the database access as the problem was reduced after deactivating a few tests which talk to the database a lot.
The script runs on linux (RHEL4) using rails version 2.3.4 and postgresql version 8.3.7. The database handler is pg, version 0.8.0
