Early experience with CUPS 1.3.10

> Mike (Sweet), my site is now using 1.3.10 as server and for clients. Generally it seems fine, but we are still seeing frequent:

It'll be at least that length of time before we know for sure whether this problem persists, though I'll monitor the size of cupsd to see if it grows - though growth was previously so gradual it wasn't dramatic.

Thats interesting.  I still havn't resolved my CUPS issues, but I did do a ps this morning, and see that cupsd was using 96% of CPU.  It was only using 1.5% of memory.  It had only been running since last night.

Has anyone else seen such high cpu usage?
