Dovecot itself runs well, and was easy to confirgure with LDAP. However, I am seeing a cpu busy-loop in dovecot-auth. Is this a known issue, or do you know why it happens? If needed I can go deeper if so required.

This is a test box, it has no load/users, except when I telnet to port 110 to test LDAP authentication.
