Can you please post some information about you environment? Something like emerge --info net-misc/curl and the command that triggered this behavior.

I ran that against provioxy using 

curl -compressed --proxytunnel --proxy  127.0.0.1:8118 http://www.google.com

and it terminated in less than a second.

Can you put the process into the background, strace it an post the output.  Make sure to use -f to get all the children as well.

curl 100 % CPU usage when a connection to the proxytunnel (connect proxy) 

If the proxy is slow, it is very noticeable

Okay but I still need the strace to see where its getting stuck.  Sounds to me like some busywaiting but it would be hard to locate without some idea.  You can also try gdb.  Get the process to dump core when its consuming 100% and get a backtrace.

I don't have enough to act on this.  Please reopen if you have more information.
Comment 9 Victor 2016-02-14 19:16:37 UTC 
curl_ 100 % CPU usage when a connection to the proxytunnel (connect proxy) 

for curl option --proxytunnel
for libcurl option CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL

If the proxy is slow or not work, it is very noticeable


sorry for my English
