Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining - I restart this machine once/twice a month :)

There's nothing like reliability!

Actually I've taken to choking my CPU down to 800Mhz anyway, so the laptop runs much cooler. Has no effect on citytime.  So if you ever "upgrade" to a PIII+, you can expect much quicker torsmo stuff.

...left it going all night, every so often the torsmo display disappears for 10-15s and then comes back - this doesn't seem to match the frequency at which .citytime checks the web time though...

If you're calling a number of different things from torsmo - here I'm guessing - but perhaps this occurs when a number of torsmo-initiated events occur at the same time.

Perhaps try breaking the intervals between the different calls so these are not in lock step eg every 90 sec for one external event  and every 60 sec for another so they can't coincide.

And/or try disabling these and adding them back in one at a time until the behavior manifests?

The only other external call being made is .torsmo_ip - I'll offset the "execi 180" to something else as you suggest. The blanking also might be related to the cpu %load - I'll have a look at this.
