I upgraded to 5.017 early this morning and since then my CPU usage has gotten goofy. But it appears the confd is going a bit crazy.
see my CPU usage graph here: load avg daily png
This box is a 1.2Ghz Athlon 256M 30GB of disk, running mostly all features for a 2 user network with DSL to the Internet. The only alterations from the base install are that I have installed zabbix_agentd on the box. I did a fresh install from 5.015 iso images then upgraded to 5.017 and rebuilt all the rules/features (so I did NOT upgrade from a backup file).
Some other tid bits of info.

Does anyone have any idea whats going on here? This box has only been UP for 18 hours and confd has sucked up almost an hours worth of CPU time?
