What? How is a controlled reboot a drastic measure? If you have a machine
that you are unable to run through a simple reboot, then there are bigger
problems at work, and you should really be looking into that.
I'm not pushing a reboot for each and every problem. But if you have a
wacky anomoly that you cannot explain, try a reboot. I'd much rather spend
5 minutes on a reboot than all day tracing a silly little problem that the
reboot may well just solve.
