v7.15beta [testing] is released!

Noticed very high CPU Usage on an RB750Gr3

Profile showed that the “management” process was using almost between 24% and 27% of CPU and another “unclassified” process was using another 16% CPU


NAME                USAGE
ethernet            0%   
console             1%   
ssh                 0%   
firewall            0.1% 
networking          5.6% 
neighbor-discovery  0%   
winbox              0%   
logging             0.8% 
management          24.3%
encrypting          0.1% 
profiling           3.2% 
unclassified        15.8%
total               50.9%

As this is a test device I reset it to defaults and with a simple default config same CPU usage occurs. No optional/wireless packages installed. As you can see below, the config could barely be simpler.

I also have a test CHR running 7.15beta8 that does not display the same behaviour.
