Frank,
I found the posting you mentioned (April & May 2004). It seems that
Zhan Yi found that a call to "sr.nextBytes(rnd);" was taking all the
time. I checked, and my problem is the same.
I don't need v3 (or even v2c) support, so I'm going to make a
subclass of snmp as you mentioned to disable these versions.
Any other ideas? Thanks for your help,
Norman
