Description:
------------
I'm having an issue with curl on windows with php. If i have curl enabled in php and i run php through command line i get an instant cpu spike... php.exe cpu jumps to about 20% then back down. when i disable curl it only jumps to about 2%
it does this on non curl scripts. even if i run a blank php file or php -i it jumps to 20... however httpd.exe using apache2_2.dll seems to be fine (~2%)

extensions loaded:
curl (problem with curl, fine without)
gd2
mbstring
mysql
mysqli
openssl


Reproduce code:
---------------
any code

There is a lot of initialisation code within the curl module that needs to be run when PHP is started. It's a one time cost when using fastcgi / apache but with CLI you get it on every script executed.
