The app I'm working with is well established and uses a pretty standard CakePHP ACL set up with the usual ACO/ARO tables. I usually use the cakephp console (./cake acl ....) to add acos when I create a new action in a controller, and as recently as last week I was doing this just fine for a new controller I'd created.
This morning however when running the console utility I get a very lengthy delay and eventually get (my company DB URL removed):
./cake acl create aco Statistics data

There is no isse with load time when using the app from the browser, nor with using any of the other DB-intensive actions I created last week. This dev copy of the app does not use Cake's cacheing, so that's not the problem. Really just seems to be choking somewhere specifically in adding the new aco.
I'd think it were an issue with the DB server if not for the fact that it is otherwise responding fine in the app. Any ideas where in Cake's guts this sort of a misstep could occur?
