My first patch ("limit CPU time spent in kipmi") is targeted at exactly
those users that you are talking about.
These users make their observations on idle systems. You'll never see
kipmid use up CPU under "top" in systems with high CPU load. With the
new patch I have in mind, kipmid can be tuned to be faster under load
and at the same time use less cycles (at the cost of slightly decreased
speed) when idle.
