evtsys service (via svchost process) burn all CPU

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello,

I have some servers running evtsys and I can affirm that regularly evtsys 
service is using all the CPU power consumption.
net stop evtsys && net start evtsys solve the issue, for some time, which I 
haven't yet measured.

Hosts are all Windows 2008R2, fully up to date, evtsys v4.5.1 x64.

Ways I will try to investigate further : find time period between 
normal/abnormal CPU consumption, maybe try disabling antivirus or vmware tools 
...

Any idea ?

Cheers

Hmm, not familiar with this one. I'm wondering if it is having issues reading 
the eventlog and constantly retrying. Let me know if you find out anything else.

Seems the issue is completely random.
What could I do if the problem occurs again ? is there is way to get a verbose 
output of what the process is doing, do I need to start the process in a dos 
prompt with special arguments ?

It happens again, the host was having only an uptime of 11h.
Is there some options that could be activated to gather some logs from evt2sys ?
