The current stable contains a version, which is, quote

-   dispatcher business from 0.21% to 80%
-   wallTime from 35 ms to 13600 ms
-   wallTime per dispatcher from 2.9 ms to 813 ms
-   cpu usage from 6% to 93%

I strongly suggest to update stable somehow, since this makes the package pretty dangerous:
it may kill a perfectly close-to-idle system by pushing it to 100% CPU on multiple threads
after a simple upgrade.

I've run into this as well and I agree. I think this bugfix is reasonable
for inclusion in 11.2.
