This has resolved many issues in the past especially if there is a memory leak in the code, because the scheduler ends when finished. note: the CAD requires you to run in SCHEDMODE PROMTED instead of POLLING. To test (may not be totally valid), you could use UPD NODE and/or UPD ADMIN FORCEPWRESET to simulate.
