CSCsi78581 - Hulc LED Process has even higher CPU (20%) running "fixed" version 15.2(2)E

A known good fix for the CPU issue was listed as version 15.2(2)E.

However, I have found that this version has even a higher CPU usage of 20% than the original bug indicated at 15%.

Does anyone know a fix for this?

I have tried several versions and the best one I've found is 15.2(2)E, even though it still sits around 20%.  Your CPU results will probably vary since we aren't sure what triggers this bug.  My switch is about 60% populated with 1500 IPv4 routing entries.  Based on other versions I've tried, 20% is low.

On 3750s this bug fix worked for me. I went from 15.0(2)SE9 to 15.0(2)SE7 then finally to 15.0(2)SE5. The last version worked. 15.0(2)SE5. I also noticed this is more of a issue with stacked switches. Standalone switches do not exhibit this exact behavior. See before and after sorts below on 5 stacked switches (mix of 3750X and 3750G)...
