[Nolug] Insane CPU Usage in DJB's DNS and daemontools

Hey,
I mentioned to some of you last night that I had a firewall box (P1-133)
that was running about 50% system processor usage. Well I went digging
and figure out that it was either Dan Bernstein's djbdns (intalled using
the debian installer package) or the daemontools package that it relies
on (also from the debian installer). When I stopped those two processes,
my system CPU usage dropped down into the single digits. (around 3.5-4%)
Doesn't matter much, because I'd never gotten around to switching my DNS
from Bind, and now I don't suppose I will.

One question though, Scott, I know you, and maybe some others, were
using JDB's DNS. It's not affecting your system CPU usage much?
Thanks,
P
