This was installed from git on fully up to date backtrack 5, using ruby 1.9.2-p290 from rvm on December 18. The last entry of the git log shows Dec 18, 03:06:04 get_resource_consumption

I am running the arachni_web_autostart, added 1 dispatcher, and then set a domain containing about 35 links to audit. Most everything I left default, except I disabled the modules related to ssn, emails, webdev, commonfiles, directory listing, backupfiles, cvs/svn users. The plugins are default except I may have disabled/unselected profiler.

The crawler is still going....runtime is 19 hours and it has discovered 158,510 pages.

It seems like it is stuck in a loop where it is just appending %27%27%27%27 many times to the same urls and incrementing each time.

I have left this running in case I need to grab the scan config....but I am not sure how to do that with the web gui running.
