Thanks Darryl, Also note this is on a VMWare VM if that makes a difference (clock types available perhaps?) and it is pinning CPU at the time.
After seeing that a recompile didn't fix the problem, I nuked the newly compiled libraries and reverted to the EPEL RPMs: Installed Packages Name : qpid-proton-c-devel Arch : x86_64 Version : 0.8 Release : 1.el6 Size : 300 k Repo : installed >From repo : epel Summary : Development libraries for writing messaging apps with Qpid Proton URL : http://qpid.apache.org/proton/ License : ASL 2.0 Description : Development libraries for writing messaging apps with Qpid Proton.
