Comment 0 for bug 1861177

There is a known and patched issue with version 2.4 of libseccomp where certain operations have a large performance regression. This is causing some packages that use libseccomp such as container orchestration systems to occasionally time out or otherwise fail under certain workloads.

Please consider porting the patch into the various Ubuntu versions that have version 2.4 of libseccomp and into the backports. The performance patch from version 2.5 (yet to be released) applies cleanly on top of the 2.4 branch of libseccomp.

For more information, and for a copy of the patch (which can also be cherry picked from the upstream libseccomp repos) see the similar Debian issue: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=943913
