That might match. When I have a user crontab the daemon freeze faster.
But it also freeze (on the same position) when I have no user crontabs.

Well I did check. And the bug was also with 2.2.23-1. I did not go
further back but the bug only happens few weeks now.

No.

So this is server tuning as I understand.

As this might go longer I have to move it to monday evening.

Only 9 users so this shouldn't be a performance problem for the server.

Me too. But I wonder because the computers are only one switch from each
other and there are few users only. What me makes confuse is that it
start some weeks ago. Unfortunality I do not exactely know when. I only
notice it as the backup was not startet nightly.

Many thanks for the help. I hope fixing this problem right fast. I did
wrote a small perl daemon now which will restart cron in the case it is
not reacting. But this is only a bad hack to minimal doing the necesary
work.
