Hello,
I'm running ser-0.8.11 and I saw the announcement of a
new version that corrects some bugs, including a race
condition in tm module.
Do I need to upgrade my server immediately, I mean, is
it easy to reproduce that "race condition" that
crashes SER?
No, it's not easy. It appears only on heavy load( e.g. stress testing).
There is a higher probability to encounter it if you have a dual-CPU
machine or if you run ser on freebsd.
You can upgrade to 0.8.11-r1 (either the src tar.gz or the cvs rel_0_8_11
branch). It's fixed in 0.8.11-r1, but there are still some tcp bugs in
there, so 0.8.12 is the way to go.
