Queue consumer stops with 100% cpu usage

I'm trying to use Berkeley DB queue with transactions. When I tested what happens when transactions with DB_APPEND are aborted I found that while it works and DB_CONSUME correctly skips over rolled back records, unfortunately extents that have those records are never deleted, which causes database to always grow. Next I tried DB_CONSUME with database opened using DB_INORDER flag and it seems there's a serious regression in Berkeley DB that causes it to loop indefinitely with 100% cpu usage when it encounters a rolled back record. I tested various versions and found that this bug doesn't happen with 5.1.29, but it is reproducible with 5.2.42, so this regression might have been introduced in 5.2. I have also tested 5.3 and 6.0, and both have this behavior. There may be something wrong with the way queue records are rolled back, one indication of that would be that in 5.1.29 doesn't have neither of the two problems I found with DB_QUEUE: extents are deleted after being consumed, and there are no issues when consuming with DB_INORDER either.
You can find Python code to reproduce this issue here:
https://gist.github.com/snaury/027a3c546f5b0a62a440
Sorry for using Python and not e.g. C++, but it's a lot shorter that way.

We have looked at the issues and they are valid. We will roll the fixes out for this in our next release of BDB. The test case was very useful and really helped to speed the process up. If you have any questions, please contact me directly at [email protected] Thanks again for bringing this to our attention.
thanks

FCPX runs always with 100% CPU usage

Hi guys,
I have following problem or issue:
When i work with FCPX (10.1.4) i have some extreme performance problems with my machine.
iStats Menus always displays an 100% usage of CPU even if I am not working or doing anything, even my background tasks window does not display anything.
The project I am working on is 1080p 30fps in h.264 codec.
I tried projects in ProRes and i had the same problem.
I closed all windows and programs running: same problem.
Its not just the Mac runs slow its like unusable in some cases, i cant even close FCPX properly.
The system I am running is OSX 10.9.5 on a MacPro 5,1 with:
12 Core at 2,4 Ghz
24Gb 1333 Mhz Ram
500 Gb original Apple SSD
2TB Raid 1 HDD with 200GB free
3TB HDD WD Black 1TB free
GTX680 Mac Edition 2GB VRam
I hope you can tell me how i can fix this problem or minimize it as far as possible.
Cheers!

Then I would simply remove it and reinstall it. If FCPX comes with an uninstaller then use that. If not then see the following:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper
    2. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning

MobileClient.exe holds 100% CPU usage in Citrix

Hi
We have successfully got Mobile Sales 5.0 SP11 working on Citrix but unfortunately, as soon as we have more than 10 people working on it, the application hangs with 100% CPU usage
This server has 4 CPU's and should not max out with so few users.
The infrastructure is set out with the application and the database sitting on different virtual servers with a gigabit connection between them.
The locking point always seems to be on the application server.
Any ideas?

Problem:100 % cpu usage with tcp server dll

Hello,
I am trying to write a dll with labwindows/cvi that allows me to create a TCP Server. This dll is integrated in labview.I created this Dll with example provides by Labwindows/cvi(rtserver.dll).
Description of my problem: when i execute this dll in a "While Loop" in labview,the TCp server wait a connection and 100% cpu usage occurs. However when a client is connect to the server,the CPU is normaly used because the program stop when he meets the timeout of the tcpread() function. I would like to know how i could limit CPU usage when the server is awaiting a client in the labview "While loop".
I know I could use a DELAY() to limit Cpu usage ,but I would like to know if there are any others solutions.
thank you.

i dont know your exact application, but i generally use Q to transfer data to TCP loop in my prgram it helps me in two ways.
1. it automatically restricts the iteration when ther is no data (Less CPU Usage, Less Unnecessary Trafic)
2. Q can eliminate problems arising due to non synchronization of loop

100% CPU usage with XP Cooler from PCAlert4

Any idea why I would be running 100% cpu usage when running XP Cooler from PCAlert4? I noticed PC was sluggish when running it so CTRL+ALT+DEL and under performance is 100% CPU with 245MB Ram Usage. No other TSR's running - several application but under 10% CPU usage without PCAlert and XP Cooler.
I was also wondering if anyone had any ideas on the video? I have the K7N2G with 768MB DDR PC 2100 (3x256) XP2200+ 266FSB running 1804MHz - Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM - 350W PSU (raidmax - yea yea I know, dont say a word though LOL) on board video and here is the problem - graphics are great, but they get choppy - running NFS HotPursuit 2 at 32bit 800x600 (doesnt seem to matter even when running 16bit 640x480still does it.) what setting am I missing? Thanks in advance.

Deathstalker (Richard),
I did what you suggest in memory management and also changed out the mem on the board - it did make a difference, not as much as I had hoped, but it did.
Raven,
I have used Fraps in the past, forgot about it, but went ahead and downloaded it to get a better look.
To the Both of you,
Thanks so much for your replies, sometimes it just takes someone outside looking in to see the things overlooked. But I went ahead and also ran all of the latest updates for the board (semi new system and I only installed with the CD that came with the Mobo) and everything is running better than expected. Thanks again for your thoughts - keep 'em flowin, it's amazing whom we could help. Take care.

Crystalras.exe consuming 100% CPU usage

Hi everyone,
When we try to open an instance of one of our Crystal reports from InfoView, the crystalras.exe process runs at 100% CPU usage and the report never shows up. After a few minutes, we get the following message:
The request timed out because there has been no reply from the server for 600,000 milliseconds.
Does anyone know where the problem could come from? Could this be because the report is retrieving too much data?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Dear Both,
I traced the RAS server as suggested by Tim and obtained a log that - I have to admit - is quite difficult for me to understand. Could I send it to one of you for examination? Thanks in advance.
Ted, please find below my answers to your questions:
Just to close out possible data source issues, are the reports going against Business Views or Universes?
The report is based on Business Views.
Do you have Processing Extensions specified for the reports?
Sorry but what are Processing Extensions?
Also, when you checked in the Crystal Reports Designer, was it Designer installed on the same machine where the page server and RAS server is running?
Yes, it is installed on the same machine.
Also, since it affects both Page Server and RAS, it may require CRPE traces to get to the bottom of this (CRPE - 'creepy' - is the CR engine used by both the Page and RAS server).
I will certainly open a case with SAP to have them help me on that.
Thank you both for your help. It is very appreciated.

Copying from USB NTFS device with Dolphin (KDE) causes 100% CPU usage

I am copying +/- 30 GB of Music files (flac) from my external USB HDD which is formatted as NTFS.
I have installed ntfs-3g and am experiencing near 100% CPU usage. What's wrong?
Additional info: I am using KDE and initiated the copying through dolphin. KDE's system monitor only shows CPU usage near 100%, but no processes in the process view could be responsable.
Thanks!

What mount options are used for that ntfs drive?
Edit: There are many similar threads but I couldn't find a solution other than trying out some kernel and cpufrequtils fun.

My laptop (win7 2ghz, 1gig) has 100% cpu usage with itunes installed (even when not running itunes) since the upgrade. i had to uninstall. tried installing but still the same problem. my daughter wants the new ipad, but this is a serious problem.

when itunes upgraded my laptop went to 100% cpu usage. only solution was uninstall. have tried itunes again as my daughter wants the new ipad. still same problem tho so not keen to spend £400 on new pad without pc support. anyone help? (ps been using ipod touches 1 and 2, been great source of pleasure for my two girls, but cant sync them, so using the little shuffles for music, syncing to an old version of itunes on an old netbook - had the sense to switch off upgrades when the new version went wrong)

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Recently FireFox often has been causing 100% CPU usage and locks up until it finishes the process (various ones). Clearing cookies/cache didn't help. Any ideas?

Windows 2000 SP4, 1g RAM, Firefox 9.0.1
We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously for 2 different mail accounts. Firefox was always much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past couple of weeks when trying to update a screen the CPU suddenly goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the particular process is finished. Closing one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely with Task Manager CPU usage goes back down to nil. After restarting Firefox CPU usage may or may not go back up depending upon whether it tries to continue the previous task that was locking it up.
It did not do this with Firefox 3.6 but then again it didn't happen immediately after updating to 9.0.1 either.

100% CPU usage occurred most often toward the end of the working day when busy trying to print on-line postage. We don't have any memory-consuming plugins but according to the knowledge base articles Firefox memory usage can gradually increase during the day even if you do nothing. It seems that may be the problem so we close and restart Firefox more often now as that usually fixes the problem. However, if we get stuck on a particular website update that causes the CPU to to go 100%, we can always start Firefox without previous tabs so the update will stop, or simply use a different browser until we have time to let the computer play games with itself.
So our workaround of restarting Firefox turns out to be the final solution (until we find something better - will post it if we do). Vic

Music store & 100% CPU usage

I've had this problem on my newly built computer, and my older machine. When I browse the iTunes music store, the status bar on the top will often move like it's opening the music store, but it'll do this for a long period of time (several minutes) and iTunes will work, but the music store will not load, and you cannot click the 'X' to stop the contacting of the music store. During this time if you open task manager, iTunes uses 100% of CPU resources. If you close iTunes it still uses 100%. you have to end the process in task manager in order to make it stop. On occasion the music store will work to view maybe one album, but if you search for another album, or click another link it'll do the whole not-responding-100% CPU usage cycle again.
All drivers are up to date and like I said it's done this on two seperate computers of mine on the same iTunes account. I also have a laptop and the music store works completely fine on it. It's only on my desktops that I have this issue.
Some specs on my machine if this will help
Asus motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 4000+ processor
2gb Kingston 184 pin DDR ram
Seagate SATA II 160 GB HD
Windows XP PRO service pack 2
thanks for your help!

I'm only guessing here, but perhaps iTunes is having a conflict with another application. If you are anything like me you probably install your favourite applications on all your computers. As a shortcut to troubleshooting, perhaps consider an application you have installed on the desktops, but NOT on the laptop. Then try uninstalling that application from your desktop computer and test iTunes.

100% CPU Usage caused by HMI

Hi everybody:
I'm working with LabVIEW DSC 8.2.1 in a system that monitors many variables of a plant, such a typical SCADA system. For this reason, the use of the graphic tools is highly used on the development of this system. Everything works fine, but I have only one problem.... the usage of the CPU.
When I am working on the development system I (not the executable) I start the application and after the variables are initialized and every process has started and are running , the CPU usage is raised around 90 - 100%. After a few days investigating the reason of this, I realized thay when I change the view on the screen to another view, for example the block diagram of the application, while the application is still running, the CPU usage goes around 15 - 25%. I've tried these many times changing the view from Front panel to Block Diagram and viceversa and the result is always the same: Front Panel= around 100%; Block diagram or another view (other applications MMIs, or Block Diagrams, etc.)= around 20%.
Another thing that I realized is that the other view (different to front panel) has to fill the entire screen to work the way I'm telling before.
When I build and run the executable, the usage of the CPU is the same... (around 100%), but I can't see any other application, because the application built is the shell of the OS, so no other views are available.
I don't know if there's some other consideration to take into account about the HMI when creating an application, and I'll appreciate very much your help.
Thanks in advance!

100 Percent CPU Usage when you run programs after you install Windows XP Service Pack 2
CPU Usage 100% Symptoms
When you run some programs, the CPU Usage meter in Task Manager may indicate CPU Usage 100%. When CPU utilization reaches 100 percent, programs will run very slowly or stop responding (hang) and your computer is freezing or crashing.
Noteress CTRL+ALT+DEL to view CPU utilization, click Task Manager, and then click the Performance tab.
These symptoms occur after you install Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2).
CPU Usage 100% Cause
These problem occurs because of the user interface code that is included in Windows XP SP2. The high CPU utilization is caused by the additional overhead that occurs when the IsWindow function is called by the user interface code.

HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn - DNS issue, hundreds of UDP connections affects my router 100% CPU usage

Hi all,
We've bought about ten pieces (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn), tested only one the other 9 are waiting for their time to be sent in our branch offices. The MFP works fine, no complains till later that day I noticed that our Mikrotik Router was struguling with high CPU usage, it took me some time to find the issue and it was the new bought MFP. Don't know why but it creates hundreds of UDP connections and almost 100% CPU usage goes to DNS service. As soon as I shutdown the MFP and delete all the connections everything goes back to normal. I've disabled almost all services (HP web service, Ipv6, SNMP, AirPrint, SLP, LPD, WS-Discovery, Bonjour), leaving only Ipv4 but without luck the issue persists. Here are some print screens confirming my saying:

Firefox 15.0.1 stops responding (100% cpu) when a link opens in a new window.

Whenever I click a link that is designed to open in a new window Firefox goes straight to 100% cpu usage and I have to go through the Windows "end now" sequence to close the program. I've tried opening one of the links in a new window but I think it was done in java not html (not sure if all the links are java when this happens as that's the only one I've tested). Not sure what details someone might need but this is on my Mom's older laptop with Windows XP Media Center Edition Ver. 2002 Service Pack 2. Hmmm just saw the SP2 will try to update and see what that does though I don't think that's the issue.

So what is happening or not happening now ? The problem computer is your Moms, but I assume your own computer works ok. Have you tried that on the same internet connection as your Mom uses & visiting the same sites?
Also try Internet Explorer. If that is also very slow the problem may not lie with Firefox.
I suggest you try the Firefox Reset feature on your Mom's computer,
* BUT first of all
**make a note of the software extensions that are in use, and bookmark their download and support sites.
** back up the Firefox profile [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* follow the instructions in the following article, after reading the caution about what will be lost
**[[Reset Firefox preferences to troubleshoot and fix problems]]

Distiller 8 and 9 both locking up, 100 % CPU usage

Not sure if its related, but probably, since it happened right after...I just transferred everything from my quad core mac pro to my new 8-core Mac Pro. Everything went well, but now Distiller 8 starts and then sits and gives the beachball of death, and one of the cores shows 100% cpu usage. (I have that utility that shows memory used, CPU usage, etc.). I hadn't bought Acrobat 9 yet so I downloaded it and installed, and Distiller 9 does the EXACT same thing. The ONLY thing I can call an "error message" is that I can see in the window after it launches is "Error in /Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/PDFX4 2007.joboptions:/CheckCompliance out of Range."
That message may have been there whole time, even when it worked, though. I don't know. At any rate, I need distiller working! Any ideas?

Glad to hear all is well. Preference files can cause big problems. Eons
ago, in the 1980s, I used a communications program called Red Ryder. I
loved the program. After it was updated to a new version (it might have
been called White Knight by that time), I started to have terrible
problems. I wrote to their technical support. They couldn't duplicate
the problem. It couldn't happen etc. I eventually got a little hot under
the collar. After all, if I couldn't use my modem, I couldn't check my
email, etc. It turned out to be a problem with my preference file when
converted to the latest version, that was causing the problem. Since
they always started with a new preference file, they couldn't duplicate
the problem that was obvious to me.

100% CPU usage by iCal

For some reason my iCal application uses 100% of CPU. What can I do to avoid it?

I had a similar problem with iTunes.
Here's the link to what fixed my problem immediately. Please note: my problem was resolved following just the three steps pasted below. The original link has additional steps that may be necessary, although I did not employ them, and my problem of 100% CPU USAGE is gone!!! Thank God!
