Hi everyone.
I'm investigating a problem with our application.
The problem that we currently have is when we try to decrypt a message.
Apparently when too many requests arrive at the same time, the system
just hangs.
This happens randomly, but I can reproduce it with no problem

I'm currently using (GnuPG) 2.0.14 in RHEL 6

Here's an example of what I see with ps aux.

USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
app  8275  0.0  0.0 119220  1656 ?        SL   22:53   0:00 gpg2
--homedir /var/lib/home/.secret --default-key

--fixed-list-mode --with-fingerprint --status-fd 2 --attribute-file
/dev/null --primary-keyring /dev/shm/ruhciPwebapp-request.gpg
--logger-fd 17 --armor --sign --clearsign

--logger-fd 9 --trust-model always --recipient
05FBAC395F2C8E91B779329A34053B48028993C1 --armor --sign --encrypt -

Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards!
