Can't say whether your change made it worse, but it does seem worse.
It's preventing me from running a database conversion because
it loses track of who I am it can't find my home directory.
This is the first time there's been frequent enough problems
that the conversion was interrupted. Let me know if I should
do something to work around the problem.
(I always had the feel that it was somehow network related,
but I have no basis for that idea which I can articulate.)
