Pool Manager process at 40%

[Nazgulero]

Hello all,

I have a problem with the CPU utilization on my Cisco 7206VXR router. The 'Pool Manager' process is consistently using about 40% of the CPU. I cannot really figure out what is using this process. I did a bug search for IOS 12.2(17a), but cannot find anything. Does anybody have an idea what this specific process is being used for ?
It might be useful to know that I am running a number of IPX tunnels on the router that shows the high CPU utilization due to the Pool Manager process.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello,

great, thanks for that really useful link. The one thing I cannot figure out is what action on the router would cause this particular process, Pool Manager, to use up that much of the CPU. Does anybody know what this process actually does ?
