Compressor and qmaster taking 100% CPU after quit

I have compressor set up with qmaster on my 8-core 2008 Mac Pro. When my cluster decides to show up (it doesn't always, but that's a seperate issue) it works great. The encodeing processes take up almost 100% of the CPU and it really cuts down on the time.
he problem is, when it's done and I quit, the CPU usage jumps back up to 100% until I force quit the 8 "Qmaster Task Service" and 4 "compressord" processes in Activity Monitor. This is after it's done encoding, the processes have stopped and all the files are there. I quit compressor and CPU usage jumps up to 100% again for about 10 minutes, or until I force quit the processes I mentioned. Any ideas?

Actually, I don't. I've run a whole bunch of cluster tests in 3,5 and 4 under various conditions and no clues popped up in that testing. (Assume this only happens with clusters.)
What I'd suggest is restting background processing, running Compressor Repair (checking trash preferences) and repairing permissions. I know; it's a shotgun approach.
Let us know.

Dock frozen, taking 100% CPU, 50gb swap

My dock is frozen and shows 100% cpu use (that is, 100% of one core). It gradually takes more and more memory until I run out of hard disk space. Killing the process does nothing - it immediately comes back at 100% of cpu and starts eating the memory over again. Same with deleting com.apple.dock.plist.
This problem was occuring in 10.8.3, so i tried updating to 10.8.4, which had no effect.
Any ideas?

I had this problem, eventually found a solution - it's to do with Parallels (and maybe VMWare Fusion) sharing Windows applications to the Mac Dock. It turned out that I had quit Parallels, but somehow it had left something about these shared Dock items in limbo. Restarting Parallels got things right again, then disabling the Shared Windows Apps in the configuration of the VMs

[SOLVED] mandb hangs, taking 100% CPU

I have a VPS running Arch (limited to kernel 3.9.4-1 by the provider). The system was unceremoniously rebooted last night due to a power outage at their facility. When it came back up, the mandb process being run by cron was taking 100% of the CPU and had been running for ~10 hours by the time I noticed it.
I eventually killed the mandb process and re-tried it manually with debugging turned on: `mandb -d`. It appears that processing stops at /usr/share/man/man5/core.5.gz (this is the last output I see, even if I leave it running for an hour or two). Even after the output stops, it is still taking 100% CPU. Anyone have any ideas or other things to try debugging it? I'm all out.

I re-installed man-pages with `pacman -S man-pages` and then received the following messages:
Purging old database entries in /usr/share/man...
Processing manual pages under /usr/share/man...
Updating index cache for path `/usr/share/man/man2'. Wait...mandb: bad fetch on multi key alarm 2
mandb: index cache /var/cache/man/3354 corrupt
Then, after running
mandb -c
subsequent calls to `mandb` executed successfully. Problem solved. I guess maybe mandb was running when the power outage occurred, corrupting the man index cache... makes me wonder what else got corrupted that I haven't noticed yet.

Procedure is taking 100% cpu

Hi ,
One of my procedure is taking 100% CPU, I looked execution plan .. But I am not sure what to look on that .. I didn't find any anything wrong in execution plan. like all are index seek .. Even the query is not taking much time just 2 sec
Regards Vikas Pathak

In addition to great suggestion Sean has been posted , I always start with the below
---This first thing to check if CPU is at 100% is to look for parallel queries:
-- Tasks running in parallel (filtering out MARS requests below):
select * from sys.dm_os_tasks as t
where t.session_id in (
select t1.session_id
from sys.dm_os_tasks as t1
group by t1.session_id
having count(*) > 1
and min(t1.request_id) = max(t1.request_id));
-- Requests running in parallel:
select *
from sys.dm_exec_requests as r
join (
select t1.session_id, min(t1.request_id)
from sys.dm_os_tasks as t1
group by t1.session_id
having count(*) > 1
and min(t1.request_id) = max(t1.request_id)
) as t(session_id, request_id)
on r.session_id = t.session_id
and r.request_id = t.request_id;

F1 live timing taking 100% CPU

I realise this is a pretty obscure problem. F1's live timing service runs as a Java applet in a browser: http://www.formula1.com/services/live_t … popup.html (registration required, but it should load and run at any time, not just on race weekends). Obviously, I haven't used it since last October, and when I fired it up this weekend it just sat there, taking 100% CPU.
It doesn't seem to be the JVM at fault: other Java applets run fine, and I've tried downgrading to a version I know worked last year. Neither is it anything in the applet itself: I have another Arch partition which I cloned off this one last November, and it works perfectly there (it doesn't seem to be the kernel, either; I tried booting this "current" partition with the kernel from that one). However, so many packages have been upgraded - and I've tinkered so much with this install - since then, that it could be literally anything.
For that reason, I don't expect anyone to come up with an immediate answer, but I'd appreciate some ideas on how to narrow down the possibilities and figure out what might be causing this.

Compressor (and Qmaster) won't update

Compressor and Qmaster will not update to version 2.0.1. I've downloaded the updates multiple times. It always asks me to restart to install, which I do, but the updates never install.
There was an old thread discussing this very problem, back in 2007. This is it:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1213418
If this problem has been resolved elsewhere, I'd really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction. This is a minor annoyance but it's still an annoyance. An iMovie update installed fine just a minute ago, but these two updates remain in the Software Update queue no matter what I do.

What does Apple consider a legitimate contractual obligation to its customers when it sells, supports and issues timely updates, often with ambiguous or incomplete documentation, any software suite claiming a level of functionality that accomplishes what it purports to achieve? When the documentation is lame and AppleCare demands periodic fees to show legacy users the way that their documentation does not, then I believe that bond of trust is just as broken as the disabled software. And because Microsoft disappoints, does not, in my opinion, give Apple license to do the same. We've all been conditioned to expect Microsoft is inferior in customer support. Apple risks degrading its image, despite a Genius Bar that is superficially there to help with common-place iPod/iPhone problems but shovels those with expensive software packages off to the AppleCare queue, through a corporate protocol of feeding the upgrade cycle. When Compressor 3 is purportedly just as buggy, how does this engender a practical level of consumer confidence one will ever receive what one pays for? I know FC Studio is a complex collection of entangled components, but why should Compressor remain such a stumbling block after all these years of updates based on presumed fixes?
Final Cut Studio is marketed at professional users. We are a niche userbase and as such, it is not worth training Geniuses in all the ins and outs of FCP because 1) there is a heck of a lot to learn and 2) they probably wouldn't use that knowledge very often.
If you compare Final Cut Studio to other professional software, you will see that you are getting a great deal. Most professional software requires you to take out a support contract in order to get any level of support at all (even software updates), and some even mandate that you pay for 1 year's worth of support when you buy it. These packages cost considerably more and you don't get 8 applications in one.
Some examples:
Avid Media Composer - $2500 + $995 standard support
Nuke - $3500 + $1000 per year support
Boujou - $10k + $2k-6k per year support (depending on the number of licenses)
Massive - $18k + $4k per year support
Sonic Scenarist - ~$50k + whatever support costs
Final Cut Studio - $1200 + $800 per year support (not mandated)
Remember that Color used to cost $20k before Apple bundled it into FCS for free. We are getting a bargain and this is why we put up with the bugs in Final Cut Studio.
P.S. I think I may have exaggerated how bad Compressor 3 is in FCS2. If you run the latest version on the latest OS, install it on a good foundation (i.e. don't migrate it), and give it the occasional dose of Compressor Repair, you should be just fine.

HELP PLEASE - syslogd gone mad taking 100% CPU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi PLEASE HELP
I have no idea what is going on but syslogd has suddenly started taking 100% CPU.
This started around 6pm this evening and despite 5 restarts 2 hours later it is STILL consuming 100% CPU.
Kicks in as soon as the machine has finished booting.
Did stop for no reason for about 10 minutes then started again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Genius updating taking 100%+ CPU time and error 13011

Does anyone else have the issue of iTunes updating Genius causing their CPU usage to max out run the cooling fan at full speed?
Im getting an average of 100%+ CPU usage while its updating or compiling or whatever its doing and Macbook cooks whiles its doing so.
Activity Monitor is reporting ridiculously high CPU usage. How do you even get 108% CPU usage?? Can someone explain that for me?
Im also getting the message 'unable to save library' with error 13011 at the end of Genius updating (the Genius update progress bar is full).
Can anyone give me some pointers as to what I can do to check why i'm getting these issues or if there is resolution?
Killing the Genius data gathering solves the CPU usage issue straight away but I'm sure it wasnt this bad before Snow Leopard.

Mail is taking 100% CPU

Out of nowhere OS X Mail on my macbook pro is taking 100% of the CPU. Doesn't seem to be downloading emails or anything but it's working the CPU. It's an IMAP connection to Mobile Me. I have tried to remove the account and re-create it from scratch and no change.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have a similar problem.
Mail starts eating up all CPU and RAM resources at the same time. After a short hang its CPU usage drops and RAM is set free again. This occurs periodically about each minute. I tried all suggestions in the forum from Onyx cleaning over envelope index deletion to Flip4Mac uninstall. Nothing helps.
Switching to Thunderbird is ok, but i'd really like to use Mail again and I'm desperately looking for a final solution.

Finder and loginwindow use 100% cpu with 10.6.8

I recently installed the patch to OS X 10.6.8 and now the finder is very unstable and uses 100% cpu and the loginwindow uses 100% cpu also. Yes I have Parallels 6 on this machine but I already "un-checked" the "show windows applications in doc" option which is the recommended solution. However, this did not fix the problem. I do not know how to determine what actual process is causing this finder / loginwindow issue. I very much appreciate if anyone has suggestion how to fix this problem.
This is on a mid-2011 MacBookPro.
thank you.

TBauer, I had the same problem with 10.6.8 using 100% of the CPU with Parallels 6 installed. The following steps solved this problem for me:
0. Take a screen shot of your Dock if you wish to remember it as currently set
1. Launch Activity Monitor and click on the CPU column so you can see Dock using the CPU
2. Move ///Users/ ... /Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist to the trash
3. Click on Dock and click on Quit Process to stop the Dock
OS X will then rebuild the default Dock
4. Put the items back in the Dock that you want
That solved the problem for me yesterday morning. I've launched Parallels 6 several times now and moved the machine from my work network to home and the 100% CPU problem hasn't returned.
Hope that works for you, too!
I don't think using the combo updater will solve the problem. The problem appears to be a .plist that is generated with OS X 10.6.7 and earlier that contains icons of a larger than Apple documented size causes the CPU looping. Rebuilding the dock.plist under OS X 10.6.8 appears to solve the problem.
Parallels has issued a knowledge bulletin saying they are looking into the problem. On their web site they have another approach involving moving the offending icon out of the dock to solve the problem. I like my solution better but theirs works, too.

ReportCrash using over 100% cpu after opening photoshop cs6

Currently running Mavericks on my macbook pro & just started noticing a problem. I'm sure its been there for a while, judging by past performance of photoshop, but just now caught it in activity monitor.
After I launch photoshop CS6, AM automatically shows ReportCrash as using upwards of 100% cpu, which explains why my computer seems to be dying when i'm working in the program.
As far as I could get with this problem on my own is checking concole to see what might be causing the process to appear. Not sure how to fix the problem though, which is why I come to the forums seeking guidance!
thanks in advance for any help!

Same thing is happening to me. Seems like it started about a week ago, fan is running a whole lot now. I'm not saying it's the cause but the "top" utility shows /System/Library/CoreServices/ReportCrash running at 103% - 105%. Weird.
Changes: In the past 10 days Software Update delivered new versions of OS X 10.9.2 and iTunes 11.1.5, and I installed and ran DiskAid 6.5.3 and evasi0n7-mac-1.0.7. Also, Chrome began to hang several times a day in the past week so I removed it and re-installed it, which seems to have solved that problem.
Anybody else hearing the fan a lot and seeing these 100%+ utilitizations lately?

Hello,
thanks for having a look. However, I already ran SFC before posting on this forum (as part of my own investigation) and it came back clean. RescueTime (a time tracking tool) is probably not the culprit because it happened also several times in the past without
RescueTime being running (that was because I had accidentally removed it from autorun at that time).
Unfortunately, I can't follow your "invalid date" explanation. I don't think an "invalid date" is anywhere involved; in fact, the method in question is called "_TreeInvalidateItemInfo" and not "_TreeInvalidDateItemInfo"
(note that there is only one "d"), so I assume its job is just to invalidate (and in turn, refresh) the cached information about nodes in the left pane's folder tree of the explorer window(s) - since the folder tree is the only NamespaceTreeControl
(whose corresponding class name is CNscTree) in explorer folder view windows. As I see it, something is causing explorer to repeatedly refresh the folder tree data, but I am stuck at finding out what exactly.
Best regards,
David Trapp
EDIT: Disassembling ExplorerFrame!CNscTree::_TreeInvalidateItemInfo confirms that, because it seems to call TreeView_SetItem for a tree node and its parent (possibly with all fields set to *_CALLBACK), and CNscTree::_UpdateItemDisplayInfo
for the parent node.
EDIT2: I'd love to dig more into the trace, however I am hitting a wall at function names/addresses. Everywhere where I would expect a function name/address (such as the "by stack" views), I only see question marks instead. What
could be the reason?

100% CPU after connecting with RDP

Hi,
We have a W2K3 SP2 vmware guest server running in our network. It's a member server. It has only Lotus domino installed.
But since last week that after connecting via RDP (doesn't matter to connect to console or any session) or with vwware console that the server CPU peaks 100% and don't allow connecting nor working with it.
We have to force shutdown from ESXi host.
Does anybody know what could be the cause.
Thanks,

Hi,
You may need to use Task Manager, Resource Monitor or Process Explorer to check which process causes 100% CPU usage.
Thanks.
