If there are thousands of addresses in an address list, validation of the addresses can take extended time. While MCPD is validating the addresses it will use nearly 100% of the CPU. Also, during this time, other daemon might timeout their connection with MCPD and/or restart.
- Longer load /sys configuration time including on upgrade. - Longer configuration sync time, where full configuration sync is more prone to cause this issue. - Modifications using the webUI consume longer time and might timeout. Depending on how long MCPD spends validating the addresses, other daemons, including TMM, might timeout their connection to MCPD and/or restart.
- Thousands of addresses in an address list.
None
The time it takes mcpd to validate an addresses list that contains nested address lists is greatly reduced.
