The code on our FWSMs isn't the latest release, so that could be part of the issue, but it's been about 16 hours now since I shut it off, and so far so good. I would say though with the other load on our firewalls, it's highly possible that they were being overloaded. Unfortunately our MRTG isn't setup to track firewall CPU, so I can't say for sure.
