@knc1: The sshd (dropbear indeed by default) doesn't get killed just because you connect over telnet

. I was referring to his choice of client terminal (cf. the window title)

.
As for the cvm threads, if you were thinking of the 25.8, that's the MEM% column, unfortunately, and that looks okay

.
But yeah, we agree that the load implies something is indeed looping, I just can't quite see what with the way the terminal mangled htop's output

.
EDIT: Fun fact, while we're talking about htop: there might be a bug in the htop version bundled with the latest USBNet release where some rows (i.e. threads/process) just go poof, which is kind of a shame ;D. The one from the
snapshots should hopefully be okay.
