Just did the upgrade to 4.7.1 and my CPU is being pegged by kclick now:

Not too sure what this means .....

Subject: Re: NAC 4.7.1 Upgrade - High CPU on CAS


This is my production CAS (3140) running 4.1.6 lightly loaded:

[root@cas ~]# top

This is my test CAS (3140) running 4.7.1 with NO load:

[root@test-cas ~]# top
top - 21:41:25 up 12:02,  1 user,  load average: 1.00, 1.00, 1.00
Tasks:  71 total,   3 running,  68 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s):  0.3%us, 49.0%sy,  0.0%ni,  0.0%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi, 50.7%si, 
0.0%st
Mem:    904184k total,   462560k used,   441624k free,    90544k buffers
Swap:  4192956k total,        0k used,  4192956k free,   261208k cached

   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
  2726 root      25   0     0    0    0 R 99.5  0.0 718:37.89 kclick


Is anyone running 4.7.1 on one of the newer appliances like the 3310 or 
3350? If so, is the same thing happening?
