in thread Hang on STDOUT

True, and easy enough. I'll try to eliminate any possibility of a collision.

your (exceptionally vaguely described) problem

Yes, I know. During 8 hours of processing, it may hang once or twice, and seemingly different locations. If I could describe it any better, it wouldn't be a problem.

    I appreciate that it can be hard to track these sort of things down.

    One thing I would try is replace the printf with sprintf to a variable, and the print the variable and put another trace between the two.

    Ie. Try and eliminate whether it is the formatting or the IO that's hanging up.
