[SR-Users] problem with ser 0.9.6

All, I am a long time lurker but never posted. I am running ser 0.9.6 for many years with no problems. Just recently none of my users can register. Well - they register once then expire out. I noticed that several ser processes are cpu- bound consuming all available cycles. Once they drop register they can never reregister. I restored the ser DB to an older one that was saved when the system was working properly. Any ideas why the ser processes would be CPU bound? Nothing has been changed on the ser proxy in years and the system has been super stable for 2 years. Has anyone seen this behavior in the past?
