nscd is part of GNU C Library, I am sure a lot of people will be happy
to learn about and many will strive to fix as soon as possible, if you
can describe the issues you had with it -- it is part of a core
component in all Unixes.
Also, the name of the other one and the issues will help the developers
to make it better -- testing and feedback is the most appreciated.
Cheers,

It might be due to a DNS query....whenver a
request has to be
forwarded to a domain, openSER makes a DNS query to resolv the IP.
During this operation, the child processing the request will not
answer to further incoming messages.
If proves to be because of DNS, the best is to install nscd (name service
cache daemon) which will speed-up a lot DNS interaction. Having it in the system will help
other applications to do DNS queries faster (e.g., asterisk, mail servers ...). It looks
to be really powerful being able to cache many services, not only DNS. It comes packaged
with most of common distributions.
