While not directly related, other forums have had issues with a corrupted security file making authentications trigger high CPU usage for securityd so maybe the two are related. Fixes for that seemed to involve removing a log file:

sudo mv /var/db/CodeEquivalenceDatabase /var/db/CodeEquivalenceDatabase.old

or possibly restarting the Security Agent:

sudo killall SecurityAgent

most conversations beyond seem to lead to contacting Apple. Were you playing with Kerberos or NFS file sharing?

Hi,

GSSD, according to

http://triviaware.com/macprocess/all

provides services to the Generic Security Service API. Not sure specifically what that does but that's what I located. I did note that, according to some various posts around the net, in some previous versions of MacOS, it had caused some problems.

Later...

Hi.
I have a process called gssd that is burning up processer resources. I cannot find on the web what this process is. Anyone know?
Thanks.
