G5 DP 2.0 - CPU running @ 100%

HELP...
my CPU is running @ 100% constantly until it crashes later on.
This is all happened after I installed 10.5.2 .
This the reading of my iStat pro widget

In most cases this has to due with a plug-in to one of your active programs that wasn't updated after 10.5.2 was released.

CPU runs 100% when logging with DAQmx using card 6229

Hi!
When I start a logging using DAQmx Analog Input the computer CPU runs 100%. This causes the problem that the computer locks and the subsequent steps in the program are left without computer CPU recourse. After the logging is compleet, 1750 samples/10 channels at 250Hz, the program runs on, but the loggfile is at that point useles.
I have instaled LV 7.1.1 and am using DAQ 7.4.
Anyone that recognizes this problem?

CPU Running 100%

Since upgrading to Lion, my CPU is now running at almost 100% all the time.
Many thanks

Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

New to photoshop cc, CPU running at 100%

right, basically ive started doing abit more photography and have bought a new camera and several lenses, im currently using the trial version of photoshop cc to see if i like it but when trying to reduce camera shake it runs my CPU at 100% and gives an error message saying unable to complete.
Im using a decent gaming machine for the software to run on and have no problems playing any high end games on highest settings, dont see how editing a picture would use more CPU than a game.
Can anyone help before i buy a new cpu for it?

Bzip2 let CPU run at 100%

What is "bzip2"?
On my new Mac, "bzip2" let run the CPU at 100% every midnight on 12:30h exactly and I don't can work anymore. I read, that this is an application for compression, but I don't find it on the applications folder. Need Mac OS X "bzip2"? Can I delete it? How can I do it?
Thanks,
Lennart

To delete it you can go to the Applications Folder->Utilities->Activity Monitor. The Activity Monitor will open showing all the computer's processes. Usinh the search feaure search for bzip2. Click it then on the top left click the quit button and the nit will quit. And stop higging the CPU until it restarts again.

USB Print and Storage Center running 100% of cpu

Macbook Pro 15 in. mid '09, 10.7.4, 8GB DRAM, 500HD.
Occassionally, I get a very hot computer. Running Activity Monitor indicates that the USB Print and Storage Center is running the CPU at 100% or in the high 90s. Since I'm not printing or even using USB printing, I haven't figured out what is causing this issue. Any suggestions?

Oracle Database 11.2.0.1.0 CPU hit 100% on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit Hyper-V

Oracle Environment Detail:
Oracle Database Enterprise Edition :11.2.0.1.0 (NON RAC, No failsafe)
O/S:     Windows 2008 R2 64 bit (6.1)
Specifics: Virtual Server using Hyper-V
Memory: 9 GB RAM
Processor: E5540
Specific about the issue:
I have two database instance created on this server with ‘memory_target=3600M’ each.
I am getting into an issue where I find NO activity on database except regular schedule job running using DBMS_SCHEDULER –
•     Database FULL export DAILY schedule time 7 & 7:30 PM accordingly for both instance (takes about 15-20 mins each)
•     Database FULL RMAN DAILY schedule time 9 & 10 PM accordingly for both instance (takes about 35-40 mins each)
This was set up on Feb 25th 2011. Since then we have encounter CPU hit 100% TWICE in this system at around 8:30 PM (SAME TIME). Both database instance exports keep running and never finish. While RMAN schedule job has NO problem. Mostly everything runs every smoothly without any issue.
Replicate the issue:
I am unable to replicate this issue and do not know the cause of the issue.
Work Around:
Oracle services shutdown/Server reboot.
Would anyone know about this issue? Have any information could help? This system will become production soon and want to make sure we have solution for this.
Thanks in advance!

I am finding that CPU hit 100% is very specific to Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 Export Utility (exp) used to take FULL database export. I understand Original Export is desupported from general use as of 11g but available for specific need.
Have anyone faced this issue with 11.2.0.1.0 Export Utility (exp)? Please help.
I have a need to use export utility which gives us migration options.
Thanks!

XP mode on Win7 Pro x64, windows xp update/svchost pushes CPU to 100% in virtual machine.

Installed xp mode on a win7 pro, dell 490 with xeon cpu. The install goes without error, win xp virtual machine loads nicely, I do not enable updates at the config during 1st startup. When Automatic update is enabled later control panel shows svchost is
pushing the cpu to 100% and the update never completes.

Hi,
1. try to run XP in safe mode by F8
2. then change Automatic update service to Manual or Disable.
3.boot XP into normal mode and see weather its still 100%.
thanks
How do you start safe mode when running XP Mode in Win 7? When you start XP Mode, the BIOS is hidden. By the time the XP Mode window comes up, its already loading the Windows desktop.

Evenlog viewing causes CPU usage 100% on Windows server 2008 SP2

We have Windows server 2008 SP2 with strange behaviour. When I scroll down events in eventlog viewer CPU usage hits 100% and eventlog viewer freeze. CPU usage is split between 2 processes SVCHOST.EXE (lmhosts, eventlog and Dhcp services) and MMC.EXE.
1)I tried to replace eventlog files with new ones. That didn’t helped
2)After server clean boot problem still exist.
3)When CPU hits 100% usage process explorer shows that from SVCHOST.EXE process CPU is used by service EventLog.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi Santosh
I re-installed VMware
tools and also configured VMXNET 3 - nothing changed :(
Sorry to hear that.
Windows event log service has couple of dependencies i.e. task scheduler and windows event collector service. Can try restrating those services ?
In addition to above, try following steps
Change NTFS permission of %WINDIR%\System32\WinEvt\Logs directory, add Local Service and
Network Service, give them FULL permissions.
Stop and Start event viewer service by running following command
net stop eventlog && net start eventlog
Issues like this might occur if the disk (FC or iSCSI SAN or even NAS) has some inconsistencies , this is true in case of both physical and virtual machines
You might want to try running chkdisk as well on the server in question

If nothing helps, try inplace upgrade of the Operating system as an last option.

X200 CPU reaches 100 celsius degrees. is this normal?

I'm using LenovoThinkVantage Toolbox to do a CPU stress test and and the same time I'm running TPFanControl to monitor the speed of the fan and the temperature of the CPU.
When I run the CPU stress test the temperature of the CPU reaches 100 degrees celcius with the fan going at 7000rpms which all of it sounds excessive and not right to me. Is this normal? or there is something wrong with my system.
Thanks in advance

100C is around the maximum the CPU can deal with before sustaining damage. Even then, running at that temperature for extended periods of time is most certainly going to be problematic.
I can't imagine it was designed to be run that way, so I'm guessing there's a problem. Maybe a heatsink is not seated properly, or something is obstructing airflow. Either way, I'd say that if you're under warranty it's worth having the depot take a look.

Increasing the SGA Size to Reduce CPU Run Queues?

I got the following e-mail message from one of our UNIX admins and wanted to know if anyone can shed some light on this:
I was just talking to [a consultant] about the problems on [the database server] and he pointed out that he has seen extremely high CPU run queues on this server, despite the fact that average CPU usage is not hitting 100%. We did some more digging and memory is being poorly utilized on this server. There is a lot of available memory that is not being used. We think that the run queues are running up because we have multiple reports coming in and sitting on the individual CPUs but they aren't able to fully utilize the available CPU. We were wondering if it would be possible to adjust the database to use more of the available memory and see if that allows the queries to use the CPU more effectively.

So, there are a lot of things that could be happening, and your post doesn't even begin to point in the right direction. Is your system heavily batched? You might speed report things up by slowing down the batch and letting other things use the cpu's. What does Oracle think it is waiting on?
As the comments cited above suggest, Cary's book addresses how to figure these things out. Big CPU run queues are certainly an indication of tuning necessity, perhaps on both the Oracle and OS side. It could even be something silly like I/O being too slow so the CPU's are waiting on that stuff. There are enough variables involved it can very quickly become like squeezing balloon animals if you don't use a structured approach.
So, what all hardware is involved? What are your init.ora parameters? What exact versions of everything? What do OS utilities show?

CPU at 100% (HP DM1-4300sa)

In task manager my computer seems so run CPU at 100% a lot of the time with very few programmes enabled please help before i take it back to John Lewis.

Hello iceman2372. I understand your CPU is running at 100%.
First, you should determine which programs/processes are using your resources. Try the following.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC. This combination opens the Task Manager.
Select the "Processes" tab.
Check the bottom left corner and ensure you're viewing processes from all users.
Click "CPU." This will arrange the processes in descending order.
List the processes which are using the most resources.
Another good step to take is to ensure that your system is free from viruses or malware. If you do not have an antivirus installed I suggest Microsoft Security Essentials. For malware I suggest running Malwarebytes. Make sure to post the results from both of these scans.
It may also be helpful to have your prodcut number. This document can show you where it is located.
I will await the result. I hope you have a great evening!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

Address Book Maxed CPU at 100%

Every time I open Address Book on OS X Server, there is another program called AddressBookManager (AddressBookManag) which opens up and spikes the CPU at 100% even after I close Address Book. I have to force quit in order to solve the issue.
Anyone have any ideas why this is occurring?

I had this problem on a MacBook Air running 10.5.8. It seems to have gone away now that I deleted a subscription to a shared address book on another MobileMe account.

Imac 27 runs hot as ****, won't sleep, and cpu runs wild in w7

I have been having audio issues with the imac 27. plugging headphones or speakers causes cpu to run crazy, the mic in the triband trrs jack does not work, and the imac runs hot, and will not go into power saver mode.
When I came in I found my nephew who was listening to some music on the imac, and I felt the back top of the imac and it was hot as ****. I almost burned my hand. I realized then that he had plugged his headphones in.
Unplugging the headphones or speakers can solve some of these problems.
But, this is not an acceptable fix.
Please contact Apple and urge them to fix these sound card issues.
If anyone does not have these problems in w7 with the imac 27 even after the latest bootcamp and imac updates, let us know right here. I think this affects every one of the late 2009 imacs and maybe some earlier ones too running windows 7.
Here's the post I recently ran on the headphone jack issue.
Not only does the cpu run crazy but the imac 27 gets very, very hot. Since I unplugged the headphones, it runs much, much cooler.
Certainly, some Mac engineers should take care of this problem, it seems it is universal on all the imac 27's and from what I gather, the smaller screened cousins too.
Also, we certainly want a stereo mix option for audio in or out, or what is called "what you hear" or wave out. Imac is supposed to be much geared to multimedia apps.
Finally, the mic jack part of the trrs set up MUST be fixed! A lot of manufacturers are going to headset combo jacks as they call them, mic in and stereo out on the same tribanded plug. But, the old single jack for mic in and single jack for stereo out are two tiny parts of the hardware and super inexpensive for the manufacturer. Why in the **** to go to the "advanced" triplug if the **** thing doesn't work.
Mac has a great reputation. I hope they remedy these problems right away.
Anyone whose imac 27 or 24 whose headset plug is working correctly. Let us know! I don't think anyone's is, but I think that few people understand that their cpu is running so much faster with the plug in, plus few even understand the combo jack and the triband, or trrs audio jack! Out of 4 audio technicians I talked to, not one of them knew what a trrs jack was or that you even have a mic in jack as part of the headset jack!
When I told one senior that it worked on the Mac side, he didn't believe for a while, thought my sound might be recorded from the onboard mic, but I proved it to him by tapping iaudibly on my iphone mic headset and and it showing up in garage band clearly and listening to big difference in audio.
As for a usb audio adapter, I am in a neon light environment and find that those adapters are more sensitive to electrical interference. Besides I want to use the headset jack as it was meant to be used!
Thats it.
Again, if anyone using an imac 27 and windows 7 64 or 32 doesnt have these problems, let us know! We are all anxious for a fix!
Best to all!

Yes, I have been dealing with this problem since early January. I just can't believe that apple would not have the necessary driver for the sound card in the Imac 27! That's like trying to run a race and not bothering to tie your shoes! How can they not have something as basic as the sound connections working???
I was encouraged to buy a top of the line imac 27 because Apple had told us that bootcamp would enable Windows users to use the machine just as if it were a native windows machine, then they don't give us the **** drivers to use the trrs mic jack. And you can't use the external speakers without the cpu going wild and heating up like a pot bellied stove.
This is really disheartening and now I am really thinking I made a big mistake. I wouldn't mind migrating to Mac gradually, but I have lot of scientific and other programs that require windows. At this rate there will be thousands of other mac buyers who will never make the same mistake again.
As you can see I am quite angry about this, and getting more angry with each day Apple ignores every imac purchaser who expected to use Windows on the machine! Is the software for a sound card driver that difficult?
Having a computer which doesn't have sound that works correctly, is like having a car without seat, you can still drive it but isn't very **** comfortable.
