            Bug ID: 26264
           Summary: hangs on compression of large httpd-error.log file
           Product: bzip2
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: bzip2
          Assignee: nobody at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: john at starfire dot mn.org
                CC: bzip2-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

I am running version 1.0.8 on FreeBSD on a Raspberry PI 3 Plus (arm64).  Things
start out just fine, but then all of a sudden, the output file quits growing
and one of the CPU cores is 100% consumed by bzip2.  I have waited several
minutes, and it just doesn't seem to progress any farther.  The filesystem is
only 21% full and no errors are posted to messages.

If desired, I can submit the log file causing the problem - but it's 138Mb so I
don't want to do that unless necessary.

FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE r354233 GENERIC  arm64

--- Comment #1 from Mark Wielaard <mark at klomp dot org> ---
We need a bit more information to see what is going on.

Do other files compress correctly?
Does the same file compress on a different architecture with the FreeBSD 1.08
bzip2 binary?

Could you try to figure out where the process is stuck?
For example by attaching gdb and generating a backtrace?

Could you try running the bzip2 testsuite against your binary?
