Digging into the libndr issue some more:

Sadly I can't use the perf.data without your full build tree, so I'm
going to need you to do some more digging on this side of things. 

Can you show me what exact code in libndr is spinning?  (That is, dig
into the perf screen)

Then, can you re-run it under 

'perf record -g -p <PID>'?

And then show me the output of perf report -g, expanding the first
function call stacks to find out what is the eventual high-level caller
of the spinning routine.  This may give us the critical clues we need.

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
