AppleFileServer hogging CPU

Hi,

I have a server that is giving me grief. The server is one of three XServes, a G5 Cluster unit, running mostly AFP.

There are two processes in the process list called AppleFileServer. One is launched by launchd with an ID of 311. The other has an ID of 312 and its parent process is AppleFileServer (311). The 312 process, run by root, uses 0.0% of CPU, running 1 thread and is behaving OK. The 312 process, run by root, is using anywhere from 85% to 110% CPU time with 42 threads and a LOT more memory than the 311 process.

I tried upgrading to 10.4.2 Server (8C39) with no luck. I tried starting DNS and making all clients plus this server bind to the IP of the directory server (another server running 10.3.9); without any positive effect.

Do you have any pointers for me?
