<div>Just for the record in case anyone reads this and gets a similar problem. Some people thought this was down to the higher frequency kernel, but was actually in fact caused by selinux being on and causing a problem with cod2. This was enabled on updating with fedora/centos/redhat. Disable it and high cpu usage and lag would stop totally.

<div>Doubt its the same problem. You can check by seeing how much cpu usage is being taken. If its > 50% for an empty server then it quite possibly is, and so turn off selinux, otherwise its unlikely that it is.<br><br>
Basically, anyone who updates to a new dist, check for that being enabled by default.</div>
