{bb} BBDISPLAY optimization?

["PAUL WILLIAMSON" <pwilliamson@mandtbank.com>]

Brother and Sisters,

I'm getting near the end of what I can do to optimize a stock install
of BB.
My problem is that I have a BBDISPLAY (only) server, and I'm getting
reports 
of the process taking longer than the sleeptime (of 300 seconds).  I've
put the 
BBLOGSTATUS to dynamic, reconfigured the drives to not cache
information 
before writing, and moved off all other processes (BBNET and BBPAGER)
to 
other servers.

I'm getting massive purple alerts on the display, but I'm not seeing
errors in 
BBOUT on any of my machines telling me there is a problem.  All purples
are 
related to "special" network port tests performed.  They all work from
the 
command line and occasionally they go back to green for a time (30
minutes) 
after I restart the BBNET process on another server, but it looks like
the 
BBNET may be the source of the problems.

I've tried switching over to fping.pl, hoping to get some resources
back, but 
that script is erroring out (message from yesterday) and I'm still
working 
on why that happens.  I am trying to hold off installing bbgen until
3.0 is released, 
but I'd really rather get the stock bb working rather than put another

piece on top to potentially mask the problem further.

Paul
