CMUD hanging... Help me interpret this WhatIsHang log?
 
My CMUD hangs every once in a while.... I can go 3-5 days or just a few hours without a hang. I recently captured the following log via the application WhatIsHang.
I assume it is one of my scripts that causes the hangs.. Can you help me find the source of my problem?

There is nothing that can be determined from that log.

The only scripting item I know of that can cause a hang is a bad regex. If you are using the %regex or %subregex functions in any of your scripts then those would be worth examining. Bad regexes can be triggered when trying to match some text but not other text. If you use either of those functions then put a something in the script to display before starting the regex. If you have triggers that use a more complex regex those might also be a source of the problem.

I do not use %regex or %subregex anywhere in my scripts.

What else could cause the hangs?

CMUD is the only program that ever hangs on my computer.

I had hanging issues on my system when the display drivers got corrupted from a failing hard drive.
Don't be so quick to assume it is a software issue.
