Yeah, I had found that web page too.? But note later on that page he states
about his patch:
This has been tested on a Xeon 2.8 Ghz server, it uses just a few percent of
CPU with 40.000 DHCP clients.
Do you have 40,000 clients?
I use many classes in my DHCP configurations on 15+ servers.? I haven't had a
problem
with DHCP eating up all the resources.
What is you goal here?? Are you wanting to assign a fixed address for each
client?

Looking at the web page, I see that he defines his classes inside the
subnet, this is bad advice, it will not do what you may want.
Classes are global wherever they are defined just as host statements.
They both inherit some things from the place of definition and use it
elsewhere to great frustration for the guy trying to debug this.
Place class and host definitions in the global scope, that causes least
problems.
