Had a closer look at the server and here is the cpuinfo

[root_at_wp-proxy tmp]# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 15
model : 37
model name : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244
stepping : 1
cpu MHz : 1791.758
cache size : 1024 KB
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat

3dnow up rep_good extd_apicid pni lahf_lm
bogomips : 3583.51
TLB size : 1024 4K pages
clflush size : 64
cache_alignment : 64
address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
power management: ts fid vid ttp

I am thinking that it just might be underpowered to do all the kerberos
work. When running squid with just ntlm it sits around 20% use.

Might have to ask for a faster server.
