DRServer "Collecting any extra data" Takes ages.

[Dippndots]

I'm strugling with DR Server at the moment. It take ages to "collect any extra data". I think I finally figured out why though:

After the render hits the pass limit, all the salves receive the END signal and generate 40+ .exrs. I assume this is normal because its the remaining parts of the rendered frame?

Some of the slaves send out the rest of the .exrs after it has created them in one go, and the drserver log looks like the 1st attached pic.

Other slaves seem to send out the rest of the .exrs 1 at a time based on the sync interval so it takes ages (~15min extra on a test I did where the render hit the pass limit in 13min), the log for these problem machine is in the second pic.

Bit of extra info: We have 27 slaves, the sync time was 60sec and 500,000 pixels (the defaults), the test scene I used was just the Alpha benchmark apartment set to 8096x4554px and 80passes in Corona 1.4

Any idea on what is going wrong here?

Update- The slave that I thought was correct, is actually just deleting the dump.exrs after it spends ~3min creating the 40+ files

Edit: It is also different slaves each time (even with the same job restarted over and over).

Update 2: This also happens when rendering locally with DR enabled.

Maybe a mod can move this to Bug Reporting, seems better suited there.

I'm tempted to say this has been fixed as of the 2/Sep 1.5 Daily. I have it running on 5 slaves and couldn't get it any of them to fail and delete the dump.exrs and it seemed the .exrs at the end of the render were generated much faster.

It took about 60sec consistently to collect the extra data with the dr settings at 15sec sync and 500,000
