CPU-usage of arlad

Hi Markus, Hi all,

That's very nice of you to keep an eye on it. Let me mention
one thing I forgot: The phenomenon seems to come suddenly
without any apparent reason, and it doesn't happen on all
machines we have. Sometimes I can work for hours with heavy
AFS access and the deamon never uses more than 5% CPU, or so.
I think this rules out that it's the encryption, no?
Best regards,
                  Matthias
