Hello,

We are using Net-SNMP 5.4.2 and sometimes we have had trouble with snmpd
using more and more CPU.
After running ltrace and checking with gdb I concluded that snmpd is busy
doing a lot of internal queries.

We have two "monitor" statements in snmpd.conf. I put a printf in
mteTrigger_enable() to see how many times it is called.
At startup it is called twice (once for each monitor statement). Upon the
first SIGHUP it is called four times, upon the second, six times, and so on.

We run a lot of automated tests that send SIGHUP to snmpd many times, so my
theory is that eventually snmpd has registered so many timers that the whole
machine is doing little else but handling monitor timers.

This problem might be related to this:
