There should not be a diald process created every time you connect.
My machine creates one diald process (PID is 208) which is the only
diald it has until the next reboot. Do this command
ps ax | grep diald
to see how many copies of diald are running. There should only be one.
You might also look into the vmstat and ps commands to figure out
where your machine cycles are going.
