[molpro-user] Possible bug in precompiled binary

Konrad,

This is not an error I've seen before, and I'm not even sure it's a bug 
in Molpro, but of course it could be that only Molpro is exposing the 
problem.

Putting 'INFO: task blocked for more than 120 sec' into google gives 
some results where the conclusion is either a slow shared file system or 
a problem with the disk. So I guess it would be worth verifying the disk.

This link:

http://blog.ronnyegner-consulting.de/2011/10/13/info-task-blocked-for-more-than-120-seconds/

seems relevant, the timing of the post seems to indicate it's relevant 
to your OS version, and it specifically mentions machines with large 
amounts of memory.

Best wishes,

Andy
