It seems that as soon as I get a commit, snapshooter goes wild.
I have 1107 running instances of snapshooter right now..
I suspect you've got pathing and/or permissions issues.
First try running snapshooter -v, and it will be louder. I've often had
to dig in deeper, tho.
I'd kill them all off. Edit the snapshooter script and add "set -x" to
line two of the script and run it by hand. Make sure to run it by hand
as the user (which might be tomcat, I don't know your setup) that would
be running it from cron.
It might be that you have disk performance issue, or two much data to
transfer in 5 minutes or whatever your cron period is set to. If you've
got multiple snapshooters hogging the master rsync at once, you'll very
likely run into some blockage.
