Using Alpha 17, I've constructed a rudimentary Java program that accesses MC via the JSON RPC. After a few transactions, the node seems to hang. Netstat indicates that appx 10 sockets are in the connected state, and the multichain-cli doesnt respond either:
[me@host ~]$ multichain-cli chain1 stop
{"method":"stop","params":[],"id":1,"chain_name":"chain1"}
<<and we hang for seemingly ever>>
Any ideas....
