Hi,
Just upgraded to Moodle 3.5.1 and from php5 to 7. Running on Debian 8. The upgraded completed successfully without error. However, the cron.php job is taking a very long time to complete (still running since upgrade). The debug log shows the following:
Convert 1 submission attempt(s) for assignment 4756
Convert 1 submission attempt(s) for assignment 4756
Convert 1 submission attempt(s) for assignment 4750
Convert 1 submission attempt(s) for assignment 4756
Convert 1 submission attempt(s) for assignment 4756
... and so on.
Any idea what is going on here? I have the feeling that something that did not work in a previous version has started working since the upgrade and is dealing with a large backlog.
