Hi Chris,
2) I only reboot every few months. When I reboot, GNUMP3d (which starts via an init script) takes several minutes to update the database, making my reboot time several minutes. I don't know if it automatically rebuilds the cache every so often based on age, or if there is some other reason, but is there anyway to get it to do this in the background, on another thread maybe, instead of holding up the start time? ...or, is there something I can do to my init script to get it to start but not hold up everything?
I also found the slowed-down reboot due to gnump3d indexing to be annoying, so used something like the attached init script. Basically just backgrounds a niced gnump3d-index process... See top of file for comments.

Hi Steve and all,

First, thanks again Steve, for the great software.  I love it!

I do, however, have a few questions/comments for Steve or others:
(FWIW, I am running gnump3d v2.8 [CVS Info: gnump3d2 1.74 (2004/05/18)] on Perl v5.008004 on a Linux Gentoo system.)
1) In the error log, it would be nice to have a time stamp on entries. I had a 7.7m error log and no clue if the errors were recent or years old. Can it use the system logger? ...or could it be modified to insert datetime for each error msg?
2) I only reboot every few months. When I reboot, GNUMP3d (which starts via an init script) takes several minutes to update the database, making my reboot time several minutes. I don't know if it automatically rebuilds the cache every so often based on age, or if there is some other reason, but is there anyway to get it to do this in the background, on another thread maybe, instead of holding up the start time? ...or, is there something I can do to my init script to get it to start but not hold up everything?
3) When it builds the cache, I get many annoying error messages (see below).

* Starting gnump3d...
