Hi,

I'm having problems with fam on my machine (Fedora Core 2). When running
one of my programs and redirecting stdout to a file, fam ends up eating
all the CPU. During a normal run, my program takes 10 seconds of CPU
while sneding 6.7 MB of data to stdout (which ends up in a file). In the
meantime, fam ended up using 2 minutes(!!) of CPU: 12x more than the
program it's monitoring. The file I'm writing is on a local filesystem
and I have no filemanager open. Also, I've been able to see that if I
remove the prints, fam no longer eats CPU.

Anyone can help? I can provide more info if necessary. Please add me in
CC to the reply since I'm not on the list.

        Jean-Marc
