I noticed, over the last few weeks, that dhclient is getting wedged.   
By that, I mean it's begun consuming unusual amounts of CPU time (such 
that I notice my system running sluggishly) - I identify this by the 
"top" display.

It's resolved by killing the process and restarting.   Though I'm not 
sure where it's getting wedged or why.

I'm on Comcast's network, if that makes any difference.

The version of the OS I have currently is:  6.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 6.0-BETA4

Anyone else notice this?
