@ -294,23 +294,6 @@ Using this setup you can now run Mopidy with ``PROFILE=silent mopidy``
if you for instance want to test Spotify without any actual audio output.
Debugging deadlocks
===================
Between the numerous Pykka threads and GStreamer interactions there can
sometimes be a potential for deadlocks. In an effort to make these slightly
simpler to debug Mopidy registers a ``SIGUSR1`` signal handler which logs the
traceback of all alive threads.
To trigger the signal handler, you can use the ``pkill`` command to
send the ``SIGUSR1`` signal to any Mopidy processes::
pkill -SIGUSR1 mopidy
If you check the log, you should now find one log record with a full traceback
for each of the currently alive threads in Mopidy.
