Have you tried using the --auth flag to cyradm to specify the correct
authentication method (this would avoid the 2 password prompts, although
there's no reason it'll actually fix your problem).

What's taking up the resources, Perl/cyradm or your pwcheck daemon? If it's
Perl, try running cyradm under the debugger to find the line that's causing
the problem. Type 'perldoc perldebtut' and also 'perldoc perldebug' at a
shell prompt to learn how to use the perl debugger if you're not familiar
with it (if you know gdb, you'll find it familiar).
