High cpu load average

Hi Experts,
I have a SOA deployed on AS 10.1.3.2 which is integerated with BI EE 10.1.3.2 on OHEL 4.
With this setup, I have seeing very high load average on cpu side. When I stop the soa oc4j the load average comes to normal level of under 1. While with soa process started it goes as high as 15 which is pretty abnormal.
Any pointers to debug what could be the issue will be helpfu.
Thanks,
Rishi

Problem... High CPU load with HDD. Please Help

Hello all,
Im stuck. Ive got a MSI KA790GX which has poor HDD access/transfer, low burst rate and very high CPU load.
As far as i know the Western Digital 640gb WD6401AALS Black should be a fast hard drive. Which according to reviews/HD Tune,
should be:-
Minimum 60mb/sec
Maximum 120mb/sec
Average 95mb/sec
Access 12ms
Burst 110mb/sec
CPU 5%
No matter what I try, i always get poor results...
My MSI KA790GX
Minimum 41mb/sec ~ 54mb/sec
Maximum 104mb/sec ~ 108mb/sec
Average 86mb/sec ~89mb/sec
Access 12ms
Burst 60mb/sec ~ 80mb/sec
CPU 26% ~ 44%!!!!!!!!
I could accept not getting the same high speed results as the review/reference, even if the burst rate sucked.
But one of the cores goes to 50%-60% load during hdd activity. Thats just crazy!!
I have tried...
IDE mode, AHCI, RAID Ready, RAID Single Disk
SATA Port 1, 2, 3, 4 + 5
Different SATA cables
Flashed bios, cleared bios, optimised defaults, failsafe defaults
Windows XP 32bit, Vista 32bit, Vista 64bit. fresh installs
MSI CD Drivers, MSI Web Drivers, AMD/ATI Web Drivers
... and combinations of.
I have also tested the WD640gb Black on another older PC, with Nvidia (55?) chipset and slower (1.9ghz x2) cpu.
Transfer rates were slightly better than my KA790GX but, Burst Rate = 115mb/sec and CPU usage = 13%.
I also tried a Seagate 1.5tb (ST31500341AS) on both PCs,
Nvidia chipset
Minimum 65mb/sec
Maximum 134mb/sec
Average 107mb/sec
Access 14ms
Burst 83mb/sec
CPU 7%
On my MSI KA790GX
Minimum 55mb/sec
Maximum 120mb/sec
Average 100mb/sec
Access 14ms
Burst 87mb/sec
CPU 33%!!!!
Could someone please please help, ive spent hours and hours on this. Its doin my head in.
I just hope its something stupid ive missed, cos i still not used my HD4850 from christmas :-(
Thanks.

Not sure how to check PIO/DMA mode on a SATA device. IDE devices show DMA enabled.
BIOS version 1.4 - 29 December 2008, and now version 1.51
Fredrik
I have Vista 64, but i did try XP32 and Vista32 and got similar poor results.
I tested HDD speed with, HD Tune 2.55 and HD Tune 3.50 trial.
No auto-start programs really, Windows clean installs + any drivers.
Quadrifoglio Verde
CPU @ default 2800mhz, All mem bios options to auto/defaults
Windows Experience Index, CPU Score = 5.3
AMD Overdrive
Integer Computation = 8220
Floating Point Computation = 5325
Memory speed = 1770
Cache Speed = 10790
System Performance = 7403
Bas
I used HDTune because I could reference to other results. Whats a better program to use?
Windows Experience Index, HDD Score = 5.9.
But I have no reference and cant be sure of cpu load.
Sepher
Bios defaults to C&C and C1E off so i have tried them. Also windows power settings, balanced/high performance.
UPDATE
Reinstalled Vista64 but loaded the AHCI driver from the disk config screen. This seems to have stopped the high cpu usage during disk activity.
HDTune with Windows Power settings @ High Performance,
Min = 52mb/sec
Max = 106mb/sec
Ave = 88mb/sec
Access = 12ms
Burst = 77mb/sec
CPU = 3.4%
HDTune with Windows Power settings @ Balanced
Min = 54mb/sec
Max = 104mb/sec
Ave = 87mb/sec
Access = 12ms
Burst = 65mb/sec
CPU = 12%
So now transfer speed is about 10% slower than reference. But burst speed is terrible.
I also used IBM Feature Tool to change the HDD AAM to 'performance mode' 254 as suggested elsewhere.
Long shot as the hdd performs ok with other hardware. same results.
Also MSI support asked me to try a newer bios, version 1.51. same results.
Anyone know what the AMD 7-Series Chipsets Disk Performance Utility does, and should i run it in Vista64?
Thanks for all the replies, hope i can sort this, not played any PC games since Quake 3 on my ti4600...

Too high cpu load with HP 6510b

Hello guys,
I have a very high cpu load on my laptop even if nothing despite htop is running. I guess it's a problem with acpi because when I deactivate acpi completely over the bootline I have no such problems.
How could I fix that?
Thank you in advance.

Hello B,
unluckily noacpi doesn't help but acpi=off. That seems to be the only way to stop the high load.
Is there any patched acpi or something else?
I also think I picked the bad revision with fan problems and some more...

How does the new i7 Mini behave under high CPU load?

Did anybody test a new quad-core i7 under high CPU load, using all cores at 100% during more than 15 minutes?
How does it behave (from a thermal point of view)?
Is the fan loud under such load?
Does it get as hot as a Macbook Air?
Do it feels like you're pushing it above its design goals, or does it look well suited for 100% CPU on all cores?
Thanks!!

High CPU load with Flash on Mac Leopard

Dear Adobe,
I am always running the latest version of the Flash plugin on my Macbook. Ever since even with the simplest Flash movies running in a browser (no matter whether Safari, Firefox, Camino, Opera, ...) the CPU load jumps oh so high the fans will spin at full speed and the CPU starts to create subtropic temperatures. Years ago I was running a Windows PC where the CPU load wasn't even close to such high CPU loads. Oh so many Apple users would very very much appreciate Flash Player being at least close to as efficient as the Windows version.
Thanks in advance for making Flash movies more enjoyable on the Mac platform

Adobe need to realize that once their great product with a lot of penetration into the web ad + ria market is starting loose its ground as they simply can't address ongoing issue on their poor flash plug-in performance other than on windows platform. There are a lot of flash enthusiast out there but this poor support from the Adobe doesn't help this much further. One of the reasons why other software vendors pushing for more open standard RIA platforms other than Flash based...
Only suggestion that I have with Adobe is that if you can not get it right then, it may help to open up flash player source to the community. I am pretty sure that there are a lot of developers out there who can help out to drive better code base for the player and in turn make flash more adopted by non non ms windows user base. At the moment, I have installed "Click2Flash" and "FlashBlock" to save majority of CPU cycle on my MacBook Pro. Imagine the impact on this for future Adobe product. All online ad will slowly move away from flash based and in turn loosing entire market share it has successfully built over the years... Well must note that MS isn't much better either... MS RDP client is permanently turned off from my system, now I'm using CoRD instead..
I sincerely hope to see some major performance improvements in near future.

Which will cause a higher cpu load, the sampler instrument or the original audio tracks?

I have some piano that I wanted to loop. I had no problem using the convert track to sampler instrument. My question is about CPU performance. Which will cause a higher cpu load, the sampler instrument or the original audio tracks?

Hi Mesaboogiewes,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Ableton.com recommends disabling Energy Saver, fullscreen mode, and Exposé. I would recommend putting the 1Gb of RAM, you will find a better result. I suggest going to the Ableton.com website and looking for more troubleshooting issues.
I hope that helps,

Xorg causes extrem high cpu load

Hello,
from time to time xorg causes a extrem high cpu load on my system.

Is there any possibility the figure out why this happens sometimes?
Thanks for your help!

X-Fi + 2 GFX-Cards = high CPU-Load, slow Mouse, hanging system

>X-Fi + 2 GFX-Cards = high CPU-Load, slow Mouse, hanging systemA Hey guys,
I'm running 2 GF 8800 GTs (PCIe .) cards on a MSI Eclipse SLI board. My Audigy2 ZS PCI runned fine in this system.
I just replaced the Audigy by a PCIe X-Fi (EMU20K2 audio processor - not the xtreme audio from MSI).
Now I'm dealing with the following issue:
- System startup is slow
- in Windows, Mouse is slow, stuttering
- high CPU-Load
- very slow system response
!!! Attention !!! I had this problems allready at the st boot with the X-Fi, when the driver from creative wasn't installed (the card was recognized as "HD Audio" bei Windows 7). Installing the drivers didn't help.
If I install only one graphics card, the system runns fine and I can use the X-Fi and it's Software without problems.
If I replace the X-Fi by the PCIe Xtreme Audio from MSI, System runns fine.
If I use Win XP with the two GFX cards and the X-Fi, System runns fine.
Can you help me?

User....

Hi there,
got the same problem if i use my two Nvidia GTX260.
My system:
Asus P6T
I7 920 @ 3,8GHz
2GB ram
Gigabyte GTX260 OC Edition
Nvidia GTX260
X-Fi XtremeGamer
-System (Win7x64) takes ~0min to start.
-Stuttering mouse, keyboard everything >.<
Deactivating the onboard sound doesnt help.
Newest Nvidia and Creative driver too =(
The system runs fine without the X-FI and two GTX260 no errors ect...
One GTX260 runs also fine with the X-FI
But two graphic cards and the X-FI..... **bleep** =/
I use debian as my main OS and it run still fine with both graphic cards and the x-fi...
so i think its just a driver problem.
Hope it will be fixed soon =/
If someone have any sugestions...please help us.
Greetings from Germany also =D

DMVPN phase 3 - scalability - nhrp generates high cpu load

Hey all.
Been running into a scalability issues with DMVPN. Mainly caused (as I see it) by NHRP.
Scenario:
IOS-SLB-based DMVPN solution in a dual-cloud setup. Practically it's 2 separate solutions with spokes having 2 tunnels (one in each cloud). See attachment sketch. We're running a phase 3 hierarchy design (trying at least)
Spoke routers:
- 2500 routers in a mixture of c871, c881, c2800, c2900. Need to scale to at least twice that.
- Spoke-to-spoke is heavily used
Farm routers:
- Cisco 7201 with VAM2+. Around 1 router per 350 spokes (+1 for secondary tunnel)
Superhub:
- ASR 1004 (one for primary and one for secondary dmvpn-cloud).
We're not running any IPSEC between the farms and the superhubs. Just regular unencrypted DMVPN (mGRE).
Problem:
- NHRP is causing high CPU load on the ASRs. With around 2000 spokes up and running on DMVPN the CPU is overloaded with NHRP traffic. We're talking like 60-70% load caused by the NHRP process alone!
We're using 'ip nhrp interest' on all the spokes - and farms. We're in need of the spoke-to-spoke functionality so we allowing LAN-segments of our customers but denying everything else.
Solutions?
1. Turning off all NHRP resolutions? Basically remove any directly spoke-spoke communications (denying everything on the interest list). We can't go there since a lot of our customers are in dire need for directly spoke-spoke connectivity (due to latency). Haven't tested that it will actually give the much needed scalable solution either (we're facing around 5000 spokes in the next 2-3 years).
2. Chopping the DMVPN solution up in lesser VPN-blocks. This will administratively be a nightmare.
3. ?
Will really appreciate if anyone have a input here. It's really hard finding anything about a LARGE scale phase3 design on the web. Everything I find seems to mix stuff from small-scale phase 2 and 3 - making it rather messy cooking reciept for a small breakfast while I need a 7 course perfect dinner
When will Cisco come with an updated design guide btw?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your quick reply.
Our ASRs (rp1) are acting as BGP RR while the farm routers are setup as RR clients.
We haven't tried connecting spokes directly to the ASRs but we have seen the same symptoms on the 7613s (sup720) and the 7200-platform.
Earlier the 7600 had the same role the ASRs have today. We were expecting that the ASRs should be doing "a better job" in terms of CPU load but we were wrong (NHRP generated around 10% more cpu load on the ASRs in comparison).
We concluded that the ASRs have a less optimized OS (coding) being rather new and all. Further we're not all happy about the stability of the platform (clear ip nhrp or taking a shutdown on the tunnel in the current situation will crash the router. 15.1(2)S1 and 15.1(3)S0a adv ip services). Haven't made a TAC case of it yet but will (has to be a bug as I see it since the 7200/7600 is handling this just fine).
Due to what I mentioned above I don't dare to debug the problem in production time and have to wait until the next scheduled maintenance window for some decent debug output (24. Oct).
We've contacted Cisco AS for assistance since it's hard to find local consultants (Norway) with enough knowledge of such scenario.
I just hope it's a config-issue and not a design issue, but we're willing to to whatever for this to scale to the thousands.

Flash causes very high CPU load (including high Xorg load)

Hello everybody,
this is my first message. I'm an Arch user since a few months, and I'm pretty sure this is the distribution I'll stick to - I pratically love everything about it, especially its simpleness. It's the first Linux that doesn't scare me away with tons of configuration files scattered around dozens of different locations. I've already gotten quite a number of things fixed by myself without even looking at the forum or wiki.
Well, it seems most of these statements can be found in most first forum posts, so I'll stop to bore you...
The problem: Playing flash videos or animations causes incredible processor load: Even youtube takes a whole CPU core (or even a little more), top shows around 80% for Xorg and around 20-30% for Firefox (a little less with Opera). I'm on Arch64 with XFCE, Athlon X2 4600+, NVidia 8200 chipset (which has severe driver problems anyway; I'm using the latest NVidia beta driver). I'd try the open source nvidia driver, but (it seems that) there's no support for my chipset yet.
Currently I'm using Adobe's Flash64 alpha, before that I used various versions fo the nspluginwrapper. 32-bit Flash also caused high CPU load, but it wasn't that much and it may have been related to nspluginwrapper rather than anything else; however I have got the impression that things became even worse with the switch to the x64 alpha (performance-wise; on the other hand, it at least loads faster and doesn't crash anymore). Like said before, youtube takes one core, but it mostly works ok then, but videos with higher resolutions that youtube's are practically impossible to watch (except when there is very little movement in the film). Neither Flash hardware acceleration on nor off makes any difference.
I've already read half of the web, searched in forums, wikis, etc., but didn't find anybody with the same problem. When Flash64 was released and people were reporting good improvements, I was hoping it would be the same for me...
What I'm looking for is suggestions of things to try... I'm out of ideas what to try and where to look. It just seems strange that I seem to have problems that others don't...
Thanks for reading and for any comments.

HELP! Computer shutting down while loading FL studio Plugins! High CPU load?!

Good day everyone. I am in dire need of some help concerning my Hp Pavilion p6-2330 . I am a producier and I use a programmed called FL studio.
I've never had this problem before but now it happens almost everytime. When I open a project with a lot of VST plug-ins or a new VST plug-in it just immeadiatly prompts windows "shutting down". I am not sure if its exclusive to FL studio or a High CPU load in general.
I've tried a lot. Replaced my PSU. Blow out the dust from my hardive throuroughly. I really doubt its a overheating problem because it only happens when opening a project with a lot of vst plugins or opening a new vst on top. and my CPU isnt hot
Is there a crash report i can look at to see the reason its shutting down? What can i do?!

Hi,
The following link shows specs of your computer:
   http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c03499435
given "only happens when opening a project with a lot of vst plugins or opening a new vst on top." I think the cheapest option now is to increase RAM from 6GB to say 16GB (using information from the above link). Before goinng out to buy more RAM, you may want to insrease system page file first (similar for Windows 8.1):

High CPU load

We use vSphere 5.5 with latest updates, Web Client and the VMware Remote Console 7.0.1. But we have problems on our Citrix Terminalserver (Windows 2012 R2): When we close a Remote Console, the prozess "vmrc.exe" didn´t disappear and causes a high CPU load (one complete core). This happens when we use the IE, Chrome or Firefox.
I don´t know why this happens, have anyone an idea? Thank you!

One thing to check is that there isn't some other process running in the background which is also using a lot of the CPU. Open Activity Monitor and select "All Processes" at the top and "CPU" on the bottom bar. If you find some process other than the BOINC that is using a lot of the CPU, highlight it and quit it and see if this helps.
If you haven't already, install iStatPro from the Apple site and keep an eye on your computer temperatures and on your fans. As long as your fans are working properly, they should keep your processor cool enough to not overheat.
It might also be worth investing in a chill mat, just to help keep your Mac cool overnight.
Good luck!

Isa 2006 wspsrv.exe high cpu load

I have an ISA 2006 Server which run for 5 years without any problem. As the hardware is getting old now I have decided to change the Hardware to a new server but was unable due to the hardware to install Server 2003 which ISA runs only on this one as it
is 32-bit. I then decided to install server 2008 R2 and install isa 2006 on a vm. Installed all updates patches on server 2008 and the 2003 running on VM, SP1 for ISA.
Everything went fine, transferred the rules and Exchange and everything works fine. However, every day, two days three days, very randomly and no systematically timeframe isa 2006 wspsrv.exe get a 99% high cpu load and then the service makes
the internet to stop. No internet access anymore, no ping by name or IP. Rebooting the server fixes that problem until it happens again. It also happens during different time when people are working or even during the weekend when noone is
working on the system.
I have no idea anymore what I could do next. ISA is the only thing installed on the Server
Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
The blog analyzed a scenario that the high CPU is caused by the third party driver. You could refer to the steps in the blog to troubleshoot this issue.
Quote:
What we can conclude here is that we have a condition where wspsrv.exe was allocating more and more threads without releasing resources (releasing threads) because it was getting stuck waiting for an answer from kernel driver.
Some threads were working on I/O, mainly socket and LRPC call (almost socket) that run in Kernel mode. The third party driver is causing every AFD call to take more time and more CPU cycles, the fact that ISA is extremely using sockets amplify the problem.
The third party kernel driver was uninstalled from ISA Server and the issue was resolved.

High CPU load kills ethernet connection

Short spikes in CPU load (MenuMeters installed) are constantly killing my internet connection.
I use an ethernet connection with a cable modem (Motorola SB 4200 E) and have a MB 2 CD, 2 GB of RAM and OS X 10.4.9.
After the ethernet connection is killed, only a complete re-start can fix the problem (and today alone I had to do something like 15 of them already).
These sudden spikes in CPU load can be caused by all different kinds of activity, e.g.
1.) playing back video files which my machine has problems dealing with (like .mkv files),
2.) playing back 'regular' .avi files,
3.) browsing the net (Camino, Safari, Opera, Firefox) and displaying flash content (just watching something on youtube creates a CPU load which kills the connection regularly),
4.) any kind of activity which asks a high CPU load in general.
It seems that the problem is caused by the CPU load in general, not by any particular application which causes the high workload.
What I have tried:
1.) PRAM reset
2.) Apple Hardware Test (extended, loop)
3.) de-installed Flash player
4.) created a new user (admin)
5.) made a clean 10.4.11 install on an external USB drive and booted from there
6.) used Airport instead of the ethernet/cable modem
7.) checked system temperatures (which are ok)
8.) changed/exchanged/checked the RAM
9.) made enough free disk space on my HD (15 GB)
10.) repaired disk permissions
but to no avail.
Any help would be very much appreciated (since I'm ready to get a MS machine and wave my Mac good bye).
Kind regards

VI causes high CPU load after several days of running

Hello,
I have a strange problem. I have craeted a test bench control VI and it runs on five PCs, controling five test benches. All PCs have almost the same hardware, same motherboard, same CPU, etc.
Normaly the CPU load is around 50% when I run the VI, but at one PC the CPU load climbs up to 85% after several days (maybe one week) of continuous running and the PC is almost tied up - the VI execution becomes very slow (10 times slower) and the mouse only moves very slowly.
First I thought that the PC has a problem but the problem dissapears as soon as I stop and restart the VI!
I don't even have to terminate LabVIEW - only my VI and then everything is okay again.
The problem does not seem to occur at the other four PCs, but I can not tell for sure.
The task manager says only LabVIEW causes the CPU load - swap file utilisation is little.
Is there a way to analyze what causes the high CPU load?
I Use LabVIEW 7.1 professional
Operating System: Win XP (SP 2 or 3 I don't remember)
P.S. I have no loops without wait-functions.
Greetings Johannes

Do all PCs have the same amount of RAM?
What is the memory use over time as seen by the windows taks manager. Does it increase gradually?
An increase in resource usage if often cause by sloppy programming.
Do you grow arrays forever or constantly resize arrays in memory? (built array, insert into array, delete from array)
Do you often create new references and never close them?
What does the program actually do? In my opinion, a constant 50% CPU load seems too high for my taste. It means it would not even be able to keep up on slightly older hardware.
