It's a daemon that checks to see if lookupd has crashed or hung because the normal process that does this won't detect it. Once lookupd crashes or hangs, there goes the system
The lookupd bug was a nasty one yes but disconnecting from and reconnecting to the internet would force it to restart.
However, I've not experienced that particular bug in a while now, it looks like they fixed it in one of the security updates.
There are a few bugs remaining but mostly minor things.
