I've been running 0.10.0rc1 for a couple weeks with no problems until now. It's stuck on block 339768, hash 0000000000000000160483c084b185b87e974467e0f684a1b26cc555174b59c7, currently about 7 hours old. I have 34 peer connections and ~33k transactions in my mempool. In debug.log I'm seeing a lot of AcceptToMemoryPool errors; not sure what else to look for.

This is on Linux x86_64, using the binary downloaded from bitcoin.org. I've confirmed I'm not out of disk space.

I notice there's an rc3 up now, but I'll hold off on restarting or upgrading in case there's anything you want me to try first.

Thanks for reporting. AcceptToMemoryPool errors are expected if you're not receiving new blocks.

Can you just try restarting? If this is a case of the (known) problem with rc1 that is fixed by rc3, restarting should also fix it.

Restarted, and it synced up right away.
