TimB - We detected this issue before our start up and did in fact test 
using the previous 4.8 agent we had and it showed expected 
authentication times.

However, working with Cisco in a TAC they indicated that there was an 
update to the 4.9.1.6 agent for resolution so we moved forward. In our 
lab machines we had authentication times around 20 seconds and posture 
assessment around another 20 seconds, but as students came onto campus 
we have had reports of up to several minutes.
