I run trinity within a user mode linux image (latest git kernel).
The directory for victims files is located at a NFS mounted share.
What I get sometimes when running 4 trinity childrens in parallel is something like the following :
2013-04-26T19:25:29.241+02:00 trinity kernel: INFO: task trinity-child1:1580 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
