Subjectslocate never finishes in 2.2.10-ac8
Hello,

I switch to 2.2.10-ac8 (RH 6.0) last night and saw that the slocate
cron run every night was still active, consuming 100% CPU.

I straced it : it repeatadly run through the following two loops :

/* 29 entries */, 15729) = 620
lseek(4, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0
lseek(4, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0
getdents(4, 0 632
12 632
28 632
52 632
76 632
96 632
120 632
140 632
164 632
184 632
208 632
228 632
248 632
272 632
292 632
316 632
340 632
364 632
384 632

432 632
448 632
464 632
484 632
508 632
524 632
548 632
564 632
584 632
608 632
/* 30 entries */, 15729) = 632
lseek(4, 1, SEEK_SET) = 1
lseek(4, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 1
getdents(4, 0 620
16 620
40 620

/* 29 entries */, 15729) = 620

I stopped the command and retried by hand, with the same result.

I reverted back to 2.2.10-ac4, and everything is running OK again.

If it may be of interest, I automount my home over NFS and a few
other directories.
