Has anything changed in your setup recently?
Unison version?
Windows upgrades?

 From here:

http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/download/releases/stable/unison-manual.html#socketmeth

"Since the socket method is not used by many people, its functionality 
is rather limited. For example, the server can only deal with one client 
at a time. "

So is there a chance two clients tried to hit the socket at the same time?

&gt; Hi,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I have an application that, among other things, syncs a folder using<br>
&gt; Unison 2.40.102 for Windows between two machines.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; When sync is going to be performed, machine A sends a message to machine<br>
&gt; B and machine B creates a unison socket instance using the following<br>
&gt; command:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; unison -socket &lt;port&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; then machine A runs unison using the following command line:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; -batch -prefer=newer -confirmbigdel=false -halfduplex -killserver<br>
&gt; -log=false -ignore=&quot;Name *.*&quot; -ignorenot=&quot;Name {*.txt}&quot;<br>
&gt; &quot;C:&#92;path&#92;to&#92;my&#92;folder&quot; \
&quot;socket://&lt;machineB&gt;:&lt;port&gt;/./&#92;my&#92;folder&quot;<br> &gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; so when sync has been performed, unison socket on machine B is killed<br>
&gt; and all is working like a charm.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; However, yesterday I noticed a strange behavior in unison socket<br>
&gt; process: instead of interacting with machine A and then killing himself,<br>
&gt; the process kept using 100% of a CPU core until I killed it today when I<br>
&gt; discovered the problem. In the meanwhile, there was no network activity<br>
&gt; on the port being involved and unison client CPU usage on machine A was 0%.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Before I started using &quot;-halfduplex&quot; in client command line I used \
to<br> &gt; experience this issue quite often, but now it seems that something \
else<br> &gt; is making unison socket process hang, albeit much less frequently.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Unfortunately the problem happened while I was running the application<br>
&gt; without logging Unison output.<br>
