[jokosher-devel] Seek bug

["Jono Bacon" <jonobacon gmail com>]

Hi folks,

Well, we seem to have one bug left that is impacting 0.1 running
smoothly, and it is the seek bug. See
http://jokosher.python-hosting.com/ticket/119 for more details.

Basically, when seeking with Jokosher by clicking on the timeline
while playing, after so many clicks Jokosher hangs. This only ever
happens with more than one instrument (for a single instrument the
problem does not exist). Because of this it smells like an adder
problem.

I also thought it may be a race conditions issue, but it seems not. I
can slowly click the timeline to seek, but it will still crash. The
number of clicks required for crash seems random too, although I did
notice some similarity at times (five and nine clicks).

I did a bit of debugging today to try and figure it out, and the debug
log does have a load of extra lines around the time of the crash, but
I have not had much time this week to poke into it. I thought I would
just open it up now we have a mailing list and see what we can learn
about the problem.
