Hi all,
I think this is a network setup user error rather than anything
complicated, but anyone know why I get long pauses (5-10secs) when
calling lo_server_thread_new for the first time in a process?
Is it likely to be some timeout I can adjust?
cheers,
dave

I ran into this problem recently too, and I'd love to hear a solution.
There was discussion quite a while ago on the DSSI list about GUIs
being very slow to appear, and lo_server_thread_new was *part* of the
problem. There were suggestions of a network misconfiguration (eg
mistakenly bypassing /etc/hosts and going to the nameserver) and a
possible fix (commenting out the IPv6-style getnameinfo() call in
liblo's src/server.c). This fix works for me, and that suggests that I
have a network configuration problem too.
It might be worth a look:

Do you have an entry like:

I seem to remember hearing about problems like this before - I think
there's a configure option to disable ipv6, but it seems like a bad
idea to not support it in the 21st century.

Oh -- I've just seen that a newer liblo release (0.24, whereas my
Ubuntu Hardy has 0.23) fixes the problem by disabling IPv6 by default.
What liblo do you have?

Thanks for all the help guys,

On some Debian systems I've seen this caused by multicast DNS taking a
really long time to fail. In that case I think it helped to remove mdns4
from the hosts: line in /etc/nsswitch.conf.
Of course, no one should be looking up "localhost" using mDNS or any
other form of DNS, so the real error is somewhere else.
