The latency occurs every 24 hours from when the service was last restarted;
I'm pretty sure I don't have any cron jobs that are scheduled based on the
last start time of the kdc process :). We do indeed do a daily LDAP dump for
backup purposes, but that has a fixed time to run. Given the way it occurs
every 24 hours after the service starts like clockwork, it feels like
something within the kdc itself? I was hoping somebody would jump up
immediately and say "oh yeah, it's such and such", barring that, I guess
we're going to need to start tracing the process activity during the latency
window and see if anything jumps out.
Thanks.
