Deadlock in DoProcess

Open springmeyer opened this issue 13 years ago • 0 comments

We've been using a fork of your lib (https://github.com/kkaefer/node-compress) in http://tilemill.com and seeing frequent hangs where the CPU drops from 100 % to 0%. This indicates to me a thread deadlock and I used apple's inspector (in activity monitor) to sample node when hung and it points to pthread usage in DoProcess.
