Default Log spamming

I've not done anything extraordinary to cause it but the DisplayLinkManager service is taking up a LOT of cpu cycles (so everything bogs down) and is spamming the logs continuously with errors:

Thank you for the report shadowcat. We're working right now on this issue, we'd like to have a solution by the final 2.5.

Best regards,
Carlo

I'm running 2.5 (68993) and seeing same behavior:

Code:
Mar  3 22:58:53 RANDOM-COMPUTER-NAME DisplayLinkUserAgent[393]: CGSDisplayStreamCreate: Invalid display 0xffffffff
Mar  3 22:58:55 --- last message repeated 29 times ---
Right now, DisplayLinkUserAgent is consuming 41.1% CPU.

This is happening a LOT to me, right now, on my Dual Head Display adapter (anker).

92% cpu for DisplayLinkManager / 40% DisplayLinkUserAgent

ARGH

mac os x 10.11.4 with most recent drivers

Hi we've made quite a few logging improvements in 2.5.1 but I have still seen this issue myself. I wonder if 10.11.4 is involved.

The issue usually goes away with a replug however very annoying and we should be able to resolve it, so it's in our list.

Kind regards,
Carlo
