Sawserver.exe high CPU

Hi,
i've got a Windows 2003 server (4GB Mem) and noticed that sawserver.exe is taking more then 80% of the CPU. Yesterday it was the whole day like that, so i restarted the server, because i couldn't stop the service for Oracle BI Server. This happened now 3 times. Now everything looks ok, but I think it will happen again.
What could be the cause and what are the main things to improve performance for the OBI server?
regards,
Osman

There are 2 servers involved in BI: (1) Analytics Server (SAS) and (2) Analytics Web Server (SAW). The high CPU you are getting is from the sawserver so here are a couple of performance tips to speed that one up (let me know if you need any tips on the Analytics Server):
Tip1: Reduce Maximum Number of Rows in Table View
Reducing the maximum number of rows that can be returned in a table view result set can significantly improve performance by reducing the system resources that can be consumed by a given user session.
This option defaults to 65000.
instanceconfig.xml
/WebConfig/ServerInstance/ResultRowLimit
Tip2: Reduce User Session Expiry Time
Reducing the user session expiry time can increase performance since resources associated with individual user sessions can be released to service other requests. The downside is that users may be requested to log in more frequently and can lose transient session state if they fail to interact with the system over a longer period than the expiry time.
instanceconfig.xml
/WebConfig/ServerInstance/Auth/ExternalLogon
The default for this 180 minutes. Try reducing this and see if it has any effect on performance.
Note: both the Saw server and the Scheduler have a config file named instanceconfig.xml! Make sure you edit the saw server instanceconfig.xml and not the scheduler one.

TMG Microsoft Firewall Service Process (wspsrv.exe) high CPU.

Please help me.
Thanks

Hi,
Since there can be multiple reasons for this issue, you can
capture a manual dump of the wspsrv.exe process on TMG server or find some related logs to better analyze this issue firstly.
In addition, what have you done before you encountered that issue?
If you have any third-party programs installed, you can temporary disable them and restart the firewall service to see if the issue persists.
For more detailed information, please refer to the links below:

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.

LM.Detection.exe high CPU during patching

I'm trying to push a Patch Bundle out to clients to update 3 products: Flash, Java and Google Chrome. The patching does work successfully but there's a long delay before the install actually starts (5 minutes+ on an i5 \ SSD machine) with LM.Detection.exe and colw32.exe hitting very high CPU (80-99%) and also lots of disk reads \ writes.
Is this normal as it seems to really slow down the machine before, during and for a couple of minutes after patching. I've got AV exclusions set up as per https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7007545 but doesn't seem to be helping.

Distnoted.exe high cpu

hello. i have noticed lately that when i open itunes on my laptop and then closing afterwards the distnoted.exe in cpu usage is very high.almost 38%.is there any solution for this?

This has been an issue for about a year at least for me and there have been complaints on it back when I first encountered it. For some reason it is never addressed.
I have learned to have the task manager open BEFORE closing iTunes. It happens every time I close it out.
What ticks me off more, is that distnoted is used with iPhones and iPod Touch devices and I have a iPod Nano with is not used for my iPod (according to what info I can dig up at other sites) Why am I being hung up by a utility that is not needed for my apple device?
If someone ever develops an alternative software package I can use to sync my iPod, I would drop iTunes over this.

W3wp.exe High CPU

I know this question has been asked a lot, but I haven't really been able to find a definitive guide.
We are running SharePoint 2013 March CU on a Windows 2012 box (24 GB RAM). We have a web application that "randomly" causes our CPU usage on the server to spike at 99%. Unfortunately, it doesn't correct itself until we recycle the application pool
in question. What's interesting is that end users don't really notice a performance hit. However, if we want to do things in Central Administration it creates havoc on the rest of our web applications on the box ultimately causing everything to time
out.
I've narrowed the issue down to a particular application pool. Per Microsoft's best practice, this application pool only has one web application associated with it. I am trying to figure out the root cause of the issue and was wondering if I could get some
suggestions or guidance on what I can do from here. I have Process Monitor installed on the server and can trace the PID, however, I am having a hard time figuring out how to narrow down the results.
We do have a custom farm solution that I believe to be the issue, however, I have no way of definitively saying that this is the issue.
There are some other PowerShell scripts that are not disposing of objects properly and I have contacted each script owner to modify their scripts to correct that issue. With that said, I ran each script individually and they didn't cause the CPU to spike
(even when they didn't dispose of the objects properly).
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

is it single server farm or whats the role of the server in farm?
also things to check / monitor if this start during the Search Crawl or Profile Snyc or Web Analytics.

Settingsynchost.exe high Cpu usage

Hello Everybody,
So lets get to the point.I clean installed Windows 10 Tech Preview Build 9841 x64 on my Hp pavilion g4 1303-au laptop
Specs of my laptop :
Amd a4-3330mx Radeon HD 6480g Microprocessor
6 GB DDR3 Ram 1333 Mhz
500 GB HDD
what i found problematic in this build (ie.,build 9841) was that when i first boot my laptop after clean install,i opened my task manager and found that Settingsynchost.exe was using 25-35% of cpu without doing anything.My fan was throttling so fast than
normal.I was really so pissed off with that so i retrieved back to my old win8.1 pro x64.So can anyone tell me how to fix this Settingsynchost.exe bug from tech preview because i want to see more aspects of window 10 and give my utmost regards for it.
Thank You
Sincerely,
Aman Srivastava

We have found that the information bubbles that open up in the top right hand corner of pdf documents can consume a lot of CPU, when visible for a user on our RDS servers Acrobat Reader would consume anything between 14-25% of CPU resource. This turned out to be very easy to resolve - first you can simply close the info bubble as the user, this setting is then retained for the next time any pdf documents are open. However this was not a suitable fix for the several hundred users that we have regularly connected to our various RDS farms. Instead we added the following registry settings to each users profile via our logon scripts - these disable the info bubbles and therefore prevent the high CPU usage.
KEY = HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\AVGeneral
DWORD = bReaderShouldShowInfoBubble
VALUE = 0
DWORD = bReaderShowEPDFToolsPaneInfoBubble
VALUE = 0
I hope that this information helps other users with similar High CPU issues when running Acrobat Reader.

11.3.1 FRU1 zenworkswindowsservice.exe high cpu after login

Hi,
I just upgraded the primary & all satellites from 11.3.1 to 11.3.1 FRU1.
With the client upgrades everything goes fine. 11.3.1 to 11.3.1 FRU1 via assignment via ZCC.
After that we changed the client in the add on of the image.
When we restore a new image with that new Agent. The zenworkswindowsservice.exe goes to 60 % CPU when you login the first time with the user. User is created via a DLU.
It stops after you reboot the system... then everything is fine.
So next thing I did restore a new image with the old agent 11.3.1 , login with the same user again. Here there is no issue..
Is this a know issue in the ZEnworks 11.3.1 FRU1 agent?

Joeri

This key should not be harmful and may even be generally beneficial.
By Default, ZCM restarts the Explorer.exe process after applying a GPO.
In General, this causes no harm but we are unsure of why this was initially done.
It may simply be legacy behavior.
Since it generally causes no harm, it is simply retained as default behavior.
It most commonly causes issues on Terminal Servers where sometimes Explorer.exe does not come back, though even here very few customers have seen this.
Feel free to try disabling the Explorer.exe restart function.
I have never heard of any reports where doing so had a negative impact, even with GPOs in place.
Hi Craig,
I have done the registry settings but without success the same issue occurs:
First I have set the registry, then reboot the pc because it is a HKLM value. Login first time as the user and the high load occurs again.
As I already told, after logging in as the user to high load appears and I had to reboot to make the issue go away. Today I noticed that without rebooting the high load stops after 39 minutes.
Do you know what could cause this?
It is strange that we do not have this issue with the previous version of the client (11.3.1)...

System (ntoskrnl.exe) high cpu usage in Windows 8.1

Sir/Mam,
I'm having this issue since last week, when i checked it is the "system" (ntoskrnl.exe) file which is using upto 18-24% of my CPU and causing all other applications to stutter for a second (incluuding Media player, mouse pointer, everything).
By using a Process Explorer software i found out that it's related to these values running under that file:
" ntoskrnl.exe!RtlSidHashLookup+0x1ffc "
It slows down my PC for a second and it happens after every 5-6 seconds (approx.).
Using Microsoft Windows 8.1

Sppsvc.exe High cpu usage since 4/6/2015

sppsvc.exe using 60% to 80% of cpu since 4/6/2015 in Windows Server tech preview. Is this due to a update or the upcoming 4/15/2015 expiration date for build 9841? This has not been a problem up until now. Any ideas?

I've just tested it with the latest version of Firefox and the CPU usage is
rising in line with the number of IDX files.
Unfortunately I can't EASILY test the applet with IE6, I'm waiting for a

Rim.desktop.exe high cpu usage and internet activity

What the heck is going on with desktop 6 software? Rim.Desktop.exe is running 10-20% cpu utilization and my router lights are blinking like crazy. It won't shut down right away while this is going on either. I have to force the shutdown to close the app and stop the internet activity. This goes on when my phone is connected or not. Storm 9530.
Dean

Thanks for the quick reply.
If you do not have that 3rd party add-on running, do you notice a difference in the cpu usage? or network connectivity?
Also did you experience any of these problems with running with DTM 5.0.1
The only network connection that Desktop Manager uses is to register the PIN number and to check for updates and down the new updates. But it does not continue constantly.
I would see if you can use BlackBerry Desktop Software without the 3rd party add-on unless you tried before, to see if it's a third party add-on causing the issue or Desktop Manager.
I look forward to your results.

Yet another high cpu using flash issue

Salutations. What I'm about to tell you won't come to you as a surprise as there have been many similar topics discussed here. In fact, on the first page, there were two. So let's get on with it!
hp pavillion entertainment notebook dv6 e2170ee
windows 7 64bit
6gb ram
intel core i7 cpu q 720 @ 1.60 GHz    (never overclocked. don't know how to)
nvidia geforce gt 230m
firefox is on safe mode. kind of better than regular mode.
firefox waaaay better than chrome in handling flash. haven't tried it on ie. don't want to. i left ie8 at version 8
flash hardware accelration is off
firefox hardware accelaration is on
latest flash player enabled
latest shock player enabled
latest flash director enabled
latest firefox
no idea if my vents and cooling system work properly. read several posts about this issue being related to hardware.
i have updated my drivers using hp support assistant, driver detective, and windows update. wouldn't be surprised if there was a conflict with all this nvidia driver as well. went to the site. it detected my model and sent me the driver. had audio and video options in it.
while writing this post, the adobe tab + 4 flash tabs off the same site (youtube, younow, cam sites, etc) are open.
performance tab in taskbar says
flashplayer 15 *32bit (2 processes with the same name but diff cpu usage by the way. why 2?) is using 5%
firefox *32 bit is using 5%
audiodg.exe is nowhere to be found
now firefox and flashplayer keep alternating ofcourse. flash always ends up with higher cpu when everything breaks. i have noticed that even after closing ff, ff and flash are still in the processes table. they stay there for a bit. why?
ISSUE NUMBER 1: i can't play a video and have flash players on at the same time. I'd like to watch a movie and every now and then look to my other screen to see what's going on with the flash site. it can't be done. all is well at the beginning then it goes to hell. i have the latest free version of bsplayer and videolan. Yes vlc handles better but it all goes to hell in the end. sometimes the video won't even show on vlc; only audio
ISSUE NUMBER 2: i don't understand the logic behind the increase in cpu. if i have 6 tabs open all flash all is well. but at some point it just spikes up. so i always try to keep the number of flash tabs as low as possible. sometimes 4 are no issue but 5 are a big issue. sometimes closing a tab helps and sometimes it doesnt.
ISSUE NUMBER 3: audiodg starts using more than 2%. It can go up to 11 or 13 even. That shouldn't happen. I've been told that for it to go beyond 2 or even 3 means there's a conflict. I had trouble dealing with this issue. I don't know what or where the conflict is. So if there's anyone here that's good at this please contact me. Ill post a pic of device manager. For the sound, i have 4 nvideo and 1 idt audio codec. I cdon't know which to disable or uninstall. im thinking of unintalling every audio/video driver i hav and start from the beginning. BUT LETS NOT MAKE THIS ABOUT AUDIO/VIDEO CONFLICT
QUESTION 1: was there ever a time when this issue didn't exist? perhaps there's a "stable" version of ff or flash that don't cause this.
QUESTION 2: ive seen a lot of posts about this but I honestly can't remember any participants saying OH REALLY? ODD, I NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE
QUESTION 3: isn't there some kind of tracer that can track the moment that it goes to hell? im sure there is but no one's mentioned it so far
QUESTION 4: would buying a new laptop solve this? I'd like to think not since the issue is flash not the capabilities of a laptop but i can't help but think that a better laptop will fix this. My laptop is 4 years old.
QUESTION 5: i don't know anything about multithreading or multiple cores handling a single process but if someone showed me how, would that resolve my issue?
MY WISH: for flash to coexist peacefully with human beings

Disabling Hardware Acceleration in Flash means that we're doing all of the processing on the CPU, instead of on the GPU. The GPU is purpose-built for 3D graphics and video decoding and is far more power efficient. Decoding H.264 video in software is very CPU intensive, which is why we made the huge investment to enable hardware acceleration on the vast majority of available desktop hardware. Running six CPU intensive tasks simultaneously (which is what you're doing by using six simultaneous tabs) is unsurprisingly going to tax your machine.
If you've disabled Hardware Acceleration because video wasn't working right or something, figuring out how to get that enabled (or moving to better hardware with good driver support) would solve the vast majority of what you're describing here. If HP doesn't offer updated drivers, I'd recommend trying the corresponding Nvidia drivers, as OEMs aren't always motivated to pick up the latest fixes once a model is no longer generating new revenue for them. The chipset manufacturers tend to provide longer support, but those drivers aren't officially supported by the OEM.
The architecture for Protected Mode for Firefox is a result of the fact that we've retrofitted a modern plug-in security approach to a legacy plug-in architecture. As you've noticed, equivalent sandboxing in other major browsers is designed into their plug-in architectures, and is therefore more efficient. We've made huge investments to support modern security architecture and always do our best to accommodate efforts from our partners in the browser space to further secure the browser. You can find a detailed explanation of our approach to Firefox here: Inside Flash Player Protected Mode for Firefox
Firefox controls the instantiation and destruction of Flash instances. You'll also notice that Firefox hangs out for a while after shutdown. This is something that we're aware of, but it's beyond our control.
Flash doesn't have much to do with audiodg, except for the fact that it generates sound and uses the windows sound subsystem. This article seems to present some reasonable advice in resolving issues with high CPU consumption from the sound subsystem. Fix Audiodg.exe High CPU Usage in Windows 7 | Windows EXE Errors
Hardware accelerated video encoding is typically not available on consumer-grade hardware (primarily because of the difference in licensing models for encoding and decoding with popular commercial codecs), and therefore is done on the CPU. The particular website chooses what codecs and bitrates are involved, and higher quality feed will consume more CPU. It's also worth pointing out that not all video can be decoded in hardware. We provide clear guidance to content providers on how to encode video so that it can be played back efficiently, it's ultimately up to the content provider to follow that advice.
So, long story short, each tab consumes resources. Running a single tab is going to use less resources than running multiple tabs. The latest version of Internet Explorer does some stuff to reduce resource consumption in tabs that you're not actively looking at. We're discussing possibilities with the Chrome folks for doing the same thing in Chromium-based browsers. Mozilla isn't interested in investing in browser plug-ins, so we don't expect to see the necessary browser-side improvements there. The Chrome sandboxing model is more efficient that protected mode for Firefox, so tasks that require moving a lot of data (like streaming video) may use less CPU in Chrome.
To answer your questions specifically:
1.) There was a time before we supported multiple tabs, webcam streaming, H.264 video decoding and modern security sandboxing. I wouldn't recommend using those versions.
2.) There are a few posts about this, but we have ~1.5 billion users. The majority of the very small number of folks relative to our install base are complaining their machines are overheating, which is a symptom of an ineffective cooling system.
     There's nothing magic about Flash that causes it to somehow superheat the CPU.
     There was a time before tabs, where people didn't normally run 5-50 browser windows. Websites also got much more complex, and the security threats got far more serious and complex.
     Playing video as a plug-in in the browser as opposed to something like VLC is inherently less efficient, as pretty much each pixel and packet gets passed through the browser before it gets to the OS or drivers.
     All of these things require additional processing. The resources on your computer are still finite, and there is an upper limit to the number of simultaneous tabs you can use.
     At some point, you come to a juncture where you need to decide between throwing more hardware at the problem, or using less tabs simultaneously.
     Also, most laptops have power saving CPUs, so they'll ratchet the clock speed down to save battery. You might want to check your power settings to make sure you're running at the CPU's full capacity when plugged in.
3.) Not that would generate anything really useful.
4.) Possibly. You actually already have a multi-core machine. I think you'd get more bang for your buck by enabling hardware acceleration and switching browsers.
5.) You already have a multi-core machine that we support.
Your Wish: We're constantly addressing security issues identified through our own testing, emerging research and intelligence from our partners in academia, government and industry. We're also looking for opportunities to tune the player, but the reality is that Intel, Nvidia and ATI (and a long list of others, in addition to Adobe) have tuned Flash Player extensively for their hardware. We work closely with the Internet Explorer and Chrome teams to continue to make the Flash experience better, and are always happy to work with the Firefox team should they decide that they're interested in plug-ins and the desktop browser again. At the end of the day, Flash is just a low-level runtime. It's just as possible to write inefficient ActionScript as it is to write inefficient C++, and while we provide some fantastic tooling for profiling your Flash content, it's up to individual content providers to write efficient code. It's really difficult to find opportunities to make generic optimizations that don't break a percentage of the hundreds of millions of sites published with Flash content.
I'm actually still not clear on what the problem you're experiencing is. All software running on your machine that's actively processing something is going to use a non-zero percentage of CPU time. The symptoms you describe indicate that Flash consumes 5% of the CPU, which is totally reasonable. I'm guessing that I don't have the complete story.
