"blued" process causing performance problems (98% CPU use)

I have a friend who's MacBook fan is spinning at hi RPM's almost constantly. I took at look at her Activity Monitor and there's a process running called "blued" that seems to be the source of the problem. It runs nearly constantly at 90%+ CPU useage, with frequent spikes into the 96-100% range, which is what I assume is causing the cooling fan to go spinning out of control. Does anyone know what this is? I've Googled it to no avail, and am hesitant to just kill it before I know what it is. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Evan,
I found this in the Apple Developer area: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/blued.8. html
I would just kill that process from the Activity Monitor.
Also, Run the hardware tests from your Install DVD (hold down d at Boot) and see if it reports any SNS (Temperature Sensor) errors - if one has failed or the leads have become disconnected then the fans will run at maximums revs by default and should go in for service.

  • Performances Problem in XI using RFC

    Hi All,
    I have some doubts about XI performance:
    Does anybody knows if there is any
    performance restrictions to do RFC calls to XI ?
    What's the best performance Solution in XI ?
    iDoc Adpater or RFC Adapter, File Adapter or RFC Adapter ?
    Is it possible that something in Mapping
    causes performance problem ?
    Thanks

    Hi
    You need to create the Type H RFC in PI system pointing to ECC and reverse in ECC system pointing to PI.
    Create the RFC and test. When you test connection it will show error because of empty message but this will work fine for the Proxy with Data.
    Thanks

  • 1. The procedure called by CUSTOM.pll causes the problem when we use f60gen

    When CUSTOM.pll contains a call to a package that in turn calls a remote package, the CUSTOM.pll compile hangs forever.
    1. The procedure called by CUSTOM.pll causes the problem when we use f60gen. Though same procedure compiles successfully using "alter procedure compile" command.
    2. We have observed the problem happens due to synonym present on the remote database(db link).
    It doesn’t work if you are calling SYNONYM on remote database. It works, for calls to tables or procedures or packages in remote database if that object is OWNED DIRECTLY by the account to which dblink is connecting to.
    select object_name, object_type from user_objects@NH_SCM_ICE.DB.ATT.COM ;
    OBJECT_NAME OBJECT_TYPE
    FA_LOCATIONS SYNONYM
    FND_FLEX_VALUES SYNONYM

    The database link is created under the APPS user in the local database but connects to a different user (SWCS_ICE_SUPCHAIN) in the remote database.
    The user in the remote database does not own any objects. It only has synonyms to objects owned by apps and others.
    Incidentally, the hang also happens when trying to describe the remote package from the application tier (8.0.6.3 sqlplus) but the describe works fine from the DB tier (10gR2 sqlplus).

  • Performance problem while CPU is 80% Idel ?

    Hi,
    My end users are claim for performance problem during execution of batch process.
    As you can see there are 1,745 statement executing each second.
    Awr report shows 98.1% of the time , waits on CPU .
    Also Awr report shows that Host CPU is :79.9% Idel.
    The second wait event shows only 212 seconds waits on db file sequential read.
    Yet , 4 minute in 1 hour period is seems not an issue.

    if the users are complaining about performance of the batch process, then that's what you should be looking at, not the entire system.I find it strange to see "end users" and "the batch process" in the same sentence (as it was in the first post). "End users" gives me the feeling of a significant number of concurrent sessions with people waiting for results in real time at the far end, while "batch process" carries the image a small number of large scale processes running overnight to prepare the data for the following morning.
    I mention this because my first view of the AWR output was: you've got 16 CPUs, only three in use, virtually no users, and doing very little work, how can the users complain. (One answer, of course, is that the 13 CPUs could be locked out of use as far as Oracle is concerned). On the second read I decided that the "users" had gone home, and the complaint was simply that the batch process wasn't completing in time.
    In this case I think "the entire system" IS "the batch process"
    Determine which stored procedures and/or SQL statements took longer than usual and then find out why. Most likely you'll be able to find
    everything you need in AWR views (DBA_HIST_SQL%) and ASH archive (DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY).
    If the batch process has changed dramatically and recently, then a simple first step might be to look at the current AWR report, find the few most time-consuming SQL statements, and use the awrsqrpt.sql script to find their history of execution plans.
    But I'd also just look at the expensive SQL - bearing in mind, particularly, that there are very few user calls per second, yet many hundred executions per second: it strikes me that there could be quite a lot of PL/SQL going on doing something a little bit expensive many times or some PL/SQL function that calls some SQL that used to be called rarely from an SQL statement but is now (due, perhaps to a change in plan) being called much more frequently - so check SQL Ordered by Executions.

  • AWOL FireWire Bus can cause performance problems

    This is a tip for anyone who may be having undiagnosed performance problems. Use System Profiler and look at the FireWire entry. If there is no information other than the title FireWire Bus that may be the cause of the problem.
    See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88338 for information. I was able to fix my performance problems by disconnecting my iMac from power and everything except mouse and keyboard.
    I've written a small AppleScript which run System Profiler each day and will alert me to a missing FireWire Bus. I hope it never happens again.

    Yup, resetting the NVRAM seems to fix a lot of
    HD/firewire problems.
    I am not even using firewire so I didn't have any firewire problems (as such). My problems seemed primarily to be performance related ... I assume the OS was spending a lot of cycles trying to check the status of the Firewire Bus.

  • Performance problem ,  100 % swap used, but vmstat -   sr = 0

    Hi,
    I have a performance problem on a server. It is sometimes very low during several hours.
    context : v890, 32 Go RAM, 8 SPARC IV+, solaris 10 release 03/05, veritas volume manager, containers, several oracle databases, applications...
    with iostat, swap partition : %b -> 100% !!!!
    with vmstat, r-> 0, b -> 0, w ->29, free memory : 600 Mo , sr -> 0, idle : more than 50%,
    uptime, load average : 6
    vmstat -S : si -> 0 , so -> 0
    vmstat -p : api -> 45126682863 ( probably a bug ) , apo -> 0 fpi -> 1895320681342 ( probably a bug ), fpo -> 0
    It's difficult to me to find the problem. Is it paging activity ??? someone can tell me, what is the memory limit for paging activity start ?
    If you thing I'm in the wrong way, thanks for all ideas :)
    Julien
    Edited by: Wylem on Feb 28, 2008 6:11 PM

    Does seem a bit odd.
    The 'w' column doesn't necessarily mean that anything bad is happening now, but it does mean that the system was severely memory limited at some point in the past at least.
    Paging should occur when free memory drops below LOTSFREE. I don't remember if swapping happens at a particular point, but probably wouldn't happen above DESFREE. The page scanner should become active (non-zero 'sr' numbers) any time the memory is below LOTSFREE.
    Since you have Solaris 10, you might want to grab the dtrace toolkit and see if some of the tools in there show you anything more useful (some of the I/O ones might break down the access further).
    So it really doesn't look like you're swapping/paging out anything now, but you almost certainly did in the past. It could be that you're using an app that has paged out a lot of stuff do disk, so that the I/O you're seeing is it bringing stuff back now that RAM is available.

  • Load balancing issue causes performance problems!

    Hi
    Can someone tell me if there is a way to find the list of users who are logging into the system directly (without using a logon group)? They are hitting the CI which is causing performance issues. Eventhough we've setup system messages and repeated emails its hard to track who aren't following it.
    Any ideas would be really appretiated rewarded with points.
    Thanks
    Arun

    easy:
    on the CI, change rdisp/gui_auto_logout to 60.
    if they login and there is no activity for 60 seconds, they will be logged out promptly. they will stop trying to login into the CI after awhile.
    and if they keep on trying, lock their account into SU01... they will get the message.
    another possibility is a user exit on the logon screen. check the ABAP forum for this.

  • RTMFMessaging causes performance problem

    Hi,
    We have a performance problem with the component:
    EP:KM:COLL:class com.sap.ip.collaboration.core.api.rtmf.core.RTMFMessaging.ReceiveJMSQueue
    This component according to the Request overview is executing literally billions of requests each day. It is also not closing many of the requests. I wondered if anyone could give some hints as to performance settings for RTMF in a load-balanced landscape that would prevent this behaviour?
    We have a Central Instance with 3 nodes, each running a web dispatcher and 4 application servers in a load-balanced environment - so it's meant to be a high availability Portal until this problem makes it fall over!
    The symptoms are also that the performance degrades over time as the RTMF requests are not always closed, until they consume enough resources that the system stops responding.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Marc

    Hi
    As one of the authors has mentioned previously this is not a problem but the way RTMF framework works.  It has a polling mechanism that polls the server for messages. 
    By default this polling mechnism is set to Constant Interval which is set to 3 seconds.  So the RTMF will poll the server for messages every 3 seconds.  However, depending on the number of users etc this polling mechanism can be changed to Linear Interval or maximum HPS (see SAP Help for further information).
    This can be changed under: System Admin > System Config > KM Content > Collaboration > RTC > RTC Engine > Polling Policy
    You can certainly look at changing these!  If you have changed this already and still having problems with the requests get back to SDN.
    Cheers

  • List versions causing performance problems

    We have a List - not Library - List - with about 100 columns (Yes. We know that's a lot and have verified that one Item wraps to two DB rows), none of which is indexed.  An InfoPath form is used to enter and
    view the List Items. Versioning is on for auditing purposes. Versioning appears to be causing a significant performance issue - the more versions a record has, the longer it takes for the IP form to open.  Generally, each version adds one second to the
    time it takes for the IP form to open. So if a list item has 30 versions, it takes about 30 seconds from the time the user clicks the Title link until the IP form opens. Obviously having to wait 30 seconds or more for a form to open is a problem.
    The performance is similar when we open the Version History window for any one Item. We also tried using PowerShell to load a List Item's Versions and it, too, behaves the same...about 1s delay for each version an
    Item has. 
    Any suggestions on how we can configure the list or SP to prevent versions from slowing performance?

    Created PDFs for the results for the first two -
    dbcc show_statistics(AllUserData,AllUserData_PK)
    dbcc show_statistics(AllUserData,AllUserData_ParentID)
    Here are the results to the Select statement:

  • Mailbox move from 2007 to 2010 causes performance problems on the 2007 box AFTER the move

    I'm having a problem where moving a mailbox from our 2007 Exchange server to our 2010 Exchange server is causing clients that are still on the 2007 server to lock up, sometimes for up to 20 minutes.  This all happens maybe 5 minutes *after* the mailbox
    move has completed - during the move we see no problems.
    I start seeing events 5015, 5016, and then 10025 on the 2007 box and that's when users start complaining of Outlook locking up and emails going to Outbox.
    If I do this off-hours like at night or on weekends I don't see the problem, which I'm sure is because there are far fewer clients connected.  We do not use cached exchange mode for a variety of reasons but mainly because our document management software
    doesn't play nicely with it.
    I am leaning toward the disk structure of our 2007 server.  They are fast (15k SAS) but arranged in a RAID-5 which isn't ideal, but which keeps up fine in all other cases.  What is happening post-move that makes for so much disk activity?  I
    thought maybe if I moved a good chunk of users off the 2007 box off-hours it might make daytime moves more possible, but I just tried again and it all locked up just the same.
    The details:
    Exchange 2007 SP3 (15k SAS disks, 2x quad core Xeon E5345, 16GB RAM)
    Exchange 2010 (VMware with 4 virtual cores, 16GB RAM, storage on EqualLogic SAN)
    Clients are almost exclusively Outlook 2010 on Win7, though a handful of 2007 users remain.
    We have about 240 users total, about 100 of which have moved to the 2010 system.
    Thanks for any suggestions.  I am stumped at this point.

  • JSP causes serious performance problem in my EP

    I have a native JSP application and running it on the EP. This application accessing a Oracle db (using oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver driver).
    When this db not running, my EP doesn't open any page. The EP try to connect with this db, but not get success.
    I modify this application with TRY and CATCH to treat the application problem, but the EP problem continues.
    In the EP Thread Overview (System Adm -> Monitoring -> Portal -> Thread Overview), I see threads (locked) about this application. To unlock this threads, I delete the par file from the Portal and re-deploy it.
    When this threads is deleted, the application treat the problem (display a error message in the iView container) and EP work normally.
    My questions:
    1) Exists some way that the problem with this application does not cause performance problems with the EP (via code or property)?
    2) Exists some property in the Config Tool where I configure the connection timeout for access the external DB?
    3) Exists some way to liberate these (locked) threads of the EP (I see the page Clearing the Portal Runtime Cache - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d2/a216e1bd7b431c82fa5ff105187112/frameset.htm - but I don't know if I can use it for this)

  • Performance problem OS X v10.5

    Hi all,
    I've a macbook pro 2.4 ghz for 6 months now. The past few weeks i'm facing some performance problems. It sometimes hangs for about 10 or 15 seconds (i see a colored circle instead of my regular mouse pointer).
    When it happens i'm not performing several programs at the same time. I didn't install any programs. Is there a way to track the processes on the foreground so i can check what process causes this problem? Or do you have a clue?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Maarten,
    You sure can monitor all processes using Activity Monitor,
    but first thing:
    How much free space is there left on your main boot drive?
    Mac OS X needs a good 10% to 15% hard disk space free to "breathe well": check that first and let us know.
    Then,
    one usual suspect is very often Safari, if you never close it it sometimes can "leak" memory.
    Use the Reset Safari cleaning options: especially website icons sometimes cause slowdowns too.
    Also:
    Of course your Permissions are repaired using Disk Utility, previous to any further troubleshooting?
    Run also a "Verify Disk", and restart from the install DVD if it finds problems, in order to Repair Disk with its DU (in Utilities menu).

  • Performance problems with CS2 under Vista

    I used to run CS2 under XP and everything was fine! A technical fault with the PC caused the hard drive to wipe itself, and for some silly reason I installed Vista when I reinstalled everything.
    The PC is very powerful and has plenty of RAM, but CS2 runs very badly on it. It can run normally, usually for the first few seconds of use, but will inevitably slow down. Anything to do with an onscreen image, such as marking an area, painting, anything. I mean it really slows to a crawl. Positioning the cursor on a location and rapidly moving it to one side, there can be a delay of several seconds before it moves! This really makes the software unusable. Thing is, I cant tie down what it causing it. The CPU use hits 100% which is the obvious reason, but why it is, I dont know. There doesnt seem to be any disc access. Also, it doesnt depend on how large or small the image is. It happens even editing an image as small as 400x400. If there is one thing, then it may well be that it is when the image is enlarged so that it is bigger than the window it is displayed in. In other words, the scroll bars are present. It never seems to happen when they are not present. Does anyone have any ideas? All the drivers are fully up to date, nothing is causing problems. the machine scores 5.9 on the vista performance test and it has 4GB of ram.

    Am I looking in the wrong place?
    Were can it be modified?
    I was adjusting it in the window color and appearance. Advanced. The only problem was that I couldn't adjust the color of the window frames under aero. Specifically things like the status bar. I currently use an old style windows setup because I can set everything to mid gray, including scroll barss, status bars and so on. It may be boring, but is best for the type of work I do.
    By the way, I have cured the problem. Under Performance Visual Effects, I disabled all the silly stuff that is hardly ever used like "Slide theTask barar Buttons" and the problem went away. Some of these are not actually used unless you use Aero anyway. I don't know which one was causing the problem, but anyway, it's gone!
    I would still like to be able to set all the colors under aero, so if anyone can tell me how, would be greatly appreciated.
