This could be due to the audit plugin slowing things down, leading to the iRODS server becoming overwhelmed. I did notice a huge number of agents at the time this was observed. Perhaps #107 can help with this.
I saw this happen on one run, so it could be a fluke. Multiple runs should be attempted to determine if this is real or not.
Bug Report
During the run up to 4.3.2.0 (2310a02), it was discovered that the unixfilesystem test suite can hang on a call to
iphymvwhen this plugin is enabled. When this happens, the tests never complete. https://github.com/irods/irods_rule_engine_plugin_audit_amqp/blob/2310a021680aa4142c5bc203e33a0dcce85a4ec6/packaging/test_audit_plugin.py#L109-L112The logs showing this can be viewed here: https://gist.github.com/korydraughn/e961c02bb950ada90ab13d5afa1f52c5

Please investigate.
