We have experienced the 100% CPU consumption for some time now as well. We
are using mpm_winnit and LDAP. I did manage to get a stack trace of the
thread (085:a1c) running in a hard loop consuming 100% of 1 CPU on a 4 CPU
machine. Here is our version info and the trace:

4 other threads had similar stack traces and appeared to be looping as well
though those threads appeared to be running between 30% to 50%. In aggregate
all of the threads of the httpd child process consumed 99% to 100% of our 4
CPU server. My conjecture is that there is some thread safety issue (please
excuse my lack of proper thread terminology) that is causing the looping
when multiple threads enter the same LDAP code shown in the traces. Once
that happens the thread that passes connections into the worker threads
can't do and so that thread eventually uses up all the worker threads but is
unable to actually pass the work off to the workers. Most of the worker
threads stack traces show them blocked on "ntdll!ZwRemoveIoCompletion+0xa"
which I think is the normal wait state. Here's a two of the other four
suspect stack traces which are all similar.

We upgraded to the latest version of Subversion on Monday and the problem
reoccurred early this morning though we were not able to get a process dump.

Any advice or suggestions for alleviating this chronic issue would be
appreciated. Let me know if anyone wants additional information or
clarification.
