[icecast] Runaway icecast again (more YP issues)

[oddsock]

Geoff, to resolve the problem of the "Server exists" issue, I actually need 
the stream name (I called it server name), as that is what is used (in 
part) to key into the "Server exists" logic.  Also, let me know if this is 
still happening, or if it has resolved itself.

with regard to the system load above 8....what is your setting for 
<yp-url-timeout> in your icecast.xml ? and which version of icecast2 are 
you running ?  This config item was put in so that problems contacting the 
YP will time out after X seconds (specified by this parameter).  That being 
said, I am also going to look into fixing this issue of spawing threads, 
hopefully for good, although it will take some time as it is very 
non-trivial....
