Hi,
this may probably be not fully related but I see from time to time a
strange behavior of ssh-agent (running in the background and initially
started by keychain launched in .bashrc) : the agent is running wild (25%
of cpu and never responding). It seems to occur (not systematically) when
network is disconnected and reconnected (this is on a laptop often removed
from the docking system). Do you have any idea how to diagnose the issue
more precisely?
Sorry, but I'm not an expert on ssh-agent. Everything I said above is based on
doing an internet search and looking briefly at the ssh-agent source code.
My only suggestion would be to attach gdb to the process when it starts running
wild and see if you can figure out why it's inf-looping. If you don't know how
to do this, someone who does know would have to be able to reproduce the
problem.
I am not an ssh-agent expert either, but I can report that I have also
observed this behavior on cygwin. I do not know how to reproduce it.
