Had a closer look at the server and here is the cpuinfo [root@wp-proxy tmp]# cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 37 model name : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244 stepping : 1 cpu MHz : 1791.758 cache size : 1024 KB fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt lm 3dnowext 3dnow up rep_good extd_apicid pni lahf_lm bogomips : 3583.51 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp I am thinking that it just might be underpowered to do all the kerberos work. When running squid with just ntlm it sits around 20% use. Might have to ask for a faster server.
