Yes, it's known, there's already a thread in -dev about the broken
EIT. Daniel has implemented a great crawler which starts crawling
through your channel list when the backend is idle for 30seconds. It's
just a first design, just to see how it can be implemented.
It's a very good starting point and I'm very happy to have the
crawler, but we just need anyone with more knowledge about EIT who's
able to fix it. I was looking at it, but I wasn't able to find the
reason :/
