[Pkg-pdns-maintainers] Bug#825849: powerdns 100% CPU usage

Hi Markus,

It's a pretty basic Powerdns installation with a MySQL backend. We're 
using one cryptokey for our domain names to serve DNSSEC to the world. 
Keys are signed with RSASHA256, and Powerdns generates domain name 
specific keys using this global key on the fly.

You could start by installing the latest pdns-server and 
pdns-backend-mysql packages together with the latest libbotan package 
and see if pdns starts using 100% CPU.

Upgrading libbotan doesn't break pdns instantly, only after you restart 
pdns. That probably makes sense, but, just saying.

Thanks,

Martin
