How long is 'quite some time'?
And what rabbitmqctl command were you trying to run? list_queues (as per
the subject line)? If so, how many queues did you have at the time?
And when you say (in the subject line) that rabbitmqctl hangs *at the
end* of a query, do you mean it displays the results and *then* hangs?

I'll have to find a Windows machine to try to reproduce that.
Are you running the standard rabbitmqctl.bat script? In the other thread
you posted some rabbitmqctl output which contained progress log
information, which is not something we see in testing and for which the
most plausible explanation is that some additional options have been
passed to the erl executable.

So this only happens when rabbit is really busy?
Rabbit does prioritise handling of rabbitmqctl processing over most
other tasks, but when the server is under heavy load it can still take
some time to handle these requests. There is not much we can do about
that really, since we wouldn't want to stop message processing altogether.

Matthias.
