Hi, We have recently moved to Jenkins (1.508) from Hudson and the service seems to be less stable. It happens that once in two weeks, Jenkins hangs. I can telnet to the Jenkins port, but it seems to just eat all input (black hole).
There is nothing in the log file (initially), two processed were showing 100% CPU. I tried jstack on them, and caused a java core dump on the second one of them - until then, one of our Jenkins tasks (which ran solr inside jenkins) was responding. Then it died. So I restarted Jenkins, and jenkins log showed too many opened files.
