High CPU load with external auth script

[terje1311]

I have installed the plugin and it workes beautifully - thank you :)
But - the perl-scripts (probably the polling) maxes out my CPU, slowing down the server so much that I had to disable the plugin again. Any solution for this?

I was facing the same issue and this python script (replacing the perl one) has solved the problem for me.
