Package: avahi-daemon Version: 0.8-5 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, After upgrading to Debian Bullseye, I noticed that the Avahi CPU usage on my server machine was quite high (eventually 100% of one core). After resetting Avahi, the CPU usage was normal then eventually increased over time again until it was again rather high. The increase appears to be (very roughly) 1 or 2% per hour on my rather humble Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 4205U @ 1.80GHz. Checking the journal, I only see the following sorts of lines: Aug 25 16:21:30 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_normalize_name() failed. Aug 25 16:21:30 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_key_new() failed. Aug 25 16:21:30 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_normalize_name() failed. Aug 25 16:21:30 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_key_new() failed. Aug 25 16:21:31 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_normalize_name() failed. Aug 25 16:21:31 zeta avahi-daemon[313333]: avahi_key_new() failed. Which was around the time I turned on another machine on my network. However, the timing was not aligned with when Avahi CPU usage increased. Instead, it seems to be aligned with when I turn on my printer, but nothing of note was printed in the log when that happened. Is there any means for me to gather additional information to help diagnose this problem?
