Hi,

We're seeing this at the moment. It's quite a beefy box and we can't
see any reason why cups is running so high:

4 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5345 @ 2.33GHz

rpm -q cups
cups-1.3.7-11.el5_4.6

rpm -q samba3
samba3-3.5.2-43.el5

Samba is from sernet and is running with an OpenLDAP backend in full
domain mode with about 100 users and about 12 printers.

We've switch off logging in cupsd.conf which has helped bring it down
from 99% CPU.

Anyone seen this before?

Thanks.
