Description

I have a local virtual drive (not a windows share, but a
clearcase version control view) mapped on my windows
machine. FZ 2.2.16 gets into a race condition when I
navigate three levels down into this drive, after opening a
folder that has ~100 subfolders.

What exactly is the problem? Please be more specific. Please
reopen item after giving more information.

Hi, do you know what I mean by race condition? CPU goes
to 100% usage and never recovers. FileZilla needs to be
manually killed; that is the problem.

That's not a race condition, that seems to be an infinite loop.

Cheers, but a race condition can ultimately exhibit the same
symptoms, a thread looking for a condition that's not going
to occur because of outside thread/process influence....I'm
betting that you guys haven't coded an infinite loop ... at
any rate, this could be argued a lot of ways, and the end
result is the same :-)

Can you please try most recent FileZilla 2 or even better FileZilla 3 (beta) to check if the problem still occurs?

I've long since forgotten the exact conditions under which I had this problem. Seeing as nobody seems to have had the same problem, I'll close this issue.
