Subject: | krb5- 1.15 KDC network performance issue |

There appears to be a change in behavior in krb5-1.15 vs krb5-1.14 which is showing a significant network performance issue.
Scenario:
- RHEL 6 host
- Additional V4 IP addresses defined (VIPs tied to virtual interfaces, e.g. eth0:1 or to lo:1)
- No IPv6 addresses setup (not that I think this matters)
- kdc_listen = 0.0.0.0:88
Kinit to the machine’s real IP performs sub-second (<1ms)
Kinit to the machine’s VIP takes about 1.0s
strace –tt suggests the delay is in sendmsg(); recvmsg() appears to be behaving quickly.
Here is the interesting thing... if I setup “kdc_listen = VIP:88 0.0.0.0:88”, it performs well. The only reason I don’t want to define VIP:88 in kdc.conf is that VIP may be moved from machine to machine (failover).
Likewise, with krb5-1.14, with kdc_ports = 88, there were no issues.
Any suggestions/assistance?
