Actual Results: xinet works, but takes all cpu resources Expected Results: work but using minimal cpu resources Additional info:
I'm the upstream maintainer of Xinetd. Does xinetd still do this? Did you have any services using xinetd such as sgi_fam? Send xinetd a SIGUSR1 to get it to dump its state. Look for the file /var/run/xinetd.dump and attach it. If this is not reproducible, I'd say this could be closed as not a bug.
