Bug#540775: nscd: using 100% of cpu immediately after start
Package: nscd
Version: 2.7-18
Severity: important
Immediately after starting nscd it starts using 100% cpu, strace showing:

epoll_wait ad nauseam
This may or may not be the same bug as #513635:
* the system is also using ldap
* there is just one nscd thread
* number of fds used is low while there is 100% CPU usage
* nscd seems to work find in spite of this
