7 | The presence of the above line is definitely what triggers the excessive |
8 | CPU usage - it is almost as-if syslog-ng is 'busy-waiting' for the |
9 | sshguard process. The sshguard process is running - but using zero CPU. |

11 | I have this problem with syslog-ng versions 2.1.3 and 2.1.4 (the one |
12 | with ~x86)... |
13 | |
14 | This is very frustrating... having played around, the syslog-ng tends |
15 | towards using 100% CPU when my server is otherwise quiet - if, and only |
16 | if, I have the program destination... even if the destination is not used. |
