Hi folks,
Well the title says what the problem is.
On my machine it took 10s for a very simple Tango server to start.
The problem was caused by a network interface that has no reverse DNS answer
(docker0 here): Tango looks up every local address at startup and waits out
the full 10s resolver timeout on that one.
I had AI generate a script to reproduce it with a dummy pyTango server and
a patched `getnameinfo()`:
git clone https://gitlab.esrf.fr/denolf/tango-startup-dns.git
cd tango-startup-dns
./reproduce.sh
Details in READE.md (obviously all AI).
Cheers,
Wout
