I apologize for replying to my own post.  I was not able to reproduce the
bug on a second run with the same options.  I'll keep trying.

The results for the two scans this time around were:

Pre-migration (svn from a few days ago):

Nmap finished: 186336 IP addresses (11600 hosts up) scanned in 1330.331
seconds

real    22m10.338s
user    0m8.086s
sys     0m40.785s

Post-migration:

Nmap done: 186336 IP addresses (11554 hosts up) scanned in 9040.909 seconds

real    150m40.914s
user    21m38.227s
sys     2m26.036s


Ignore the fact that fewer hosts were found, the scan took longer so more
machines were turned off for the night.

I'll keep trying to reproduce the crash.

Okay, I've increased the threshold for some of the messages. Go ahead

Thanks for giving it a try!

Excellent.  I got a crash (no error message) today testing a -PA -sP
scan with your migrated mass-ping against the old code.  I wasn't able to
run -d because of the extreme verbosity and Kris beat me to the note about
turning it down.

Here are the results of today's preliminary test:

I ran two scans:

time ./nmap -n -v -PA135,139,445,3389 -sP --min-hostgroup 2048 -oA
~/oldping a.b.0.0/16 c.d.0.0/16 e.f.0.0/16

and

time ./nmap -n -v -PA135,139,445,3389 -sP --min-hostgroup 2048 -oA
~/newping a.b.0.0/16 c.d.0.0/16 e.f.0.0/16

This is the typical Windows host discovery scan I do every few days to
find hosts that I then go do a 64k port scan of.

The oldping scan produced this at the end:

Host e.f.255.255 appears to be down.
Read data files from: .
Nmap finished: 186336 IP addresses (13293 hosts up) scanned in 1336.978
seconds

real    22m16.992s
user    0m7.834s
sys     0m39.758s

$ echo $?
0


The newping scan produced this at the end:

Host c.d.200.31 appears to be down.
Initiating Ping Scan at 00:14
Scanning 2048 hosts [4 ports/host]
Ping Scan Timing: About 7.76% done; ETC: 00:20 (0:05:57 remaining)


real    83m39.999s
user    11m47.630s
sys     1m25.964s

$ echo $?
130


Without debugging output I don't have anything else for you yet.

I'm firing off both scans again this time with -d so hopefully in ~83
minutes I'll have results.
