Xorg frequently does high cpu load.

Hi,
I've recently installed arch on my (new!) Asus UL30A and I've got a problem with temporal high usage of cpu by X. I've noticed it yesterday after installing gimp and running it. Cpu load was 40-60%. Now I've got htop always open and when I just do stuff (conkeror+couple of terminals) in dwm it jumps to >30%. Is it normal? How can I deal with it?
It's clean new arch install.
Conky has 2sec update, double buffer on but it's outputted to console ( I dunno if it's needed to solve my problem )

Why are logical reads responsible for high CPU load?First of all, I would like to recommend a good book on 'SQL Tuning' by Don Tow. Its really worthy to have.
Coming to your qeustion, when a session needs to access blocks in the buffer cache, its needs to acquire a latch, and latch and it uses few CPU cycles to acquire it. Therefore, reading blocks from memory (buffer cache) in terms of CPU, are very costly.
How to avoid logical reads?Avoid unnecessary block access, either removing indexes, reading only required blocks, also tunig the query according to its cardinality in the execution plan. (compare with v$sql_plan_statistics cardinality.)

  • Xorg causes extrem high cpu load

    Hello,
    from time to time xorg causes a extrem high cpu load on my system.

    After a reboot it should looks like that

    Is there any possibility the figure out why this happens sometimes?
    Thanks for your help!

  • How does the new i7 Mini behave under high CPU load?

    Did anybody test a new quad-core i7 under high CPU load, using all cores at 100% during more than 15 minutes?
    How does it behave (from a thermal point of view)?
    Is the fan loud under such load?
    Does it get as hot as a Macbook Air?
    Do it feels like you're pushing it above its design goals, or does it look well suited for 100% CPU on all cores?
    Thanks!!

  • Flash causes very high CPU load (including high Xorg load)

    Hello everybody,
    this is my first message. I'm an Arch user since a few months, and I'm pretty sure this is the distribution I'll stick to - I pratically love everything about it, especially its simpleness. It's the first Linux that doesn't scare me away with tons of configuration files scattered around dozens of different locations. I've already gotten quite a number of things fixed by myself without even looking at the forum or wiki.
    Well, it seems most of these statements can be found in most first forum posts, so I'll stop to bore you...
    The problem: Playing flash videos or animations causes incredible processor load: Even youtube takes a whole CPU core (or even a little more), top shows around 80% for Xorg and around 20-30% for Firefox (a little less with Opera). I'm on Arch64 with XFCE, Athlon X2 4600+, NVidia 8200 chipset (which has severe driver problems anyway; I'm using the latest NVidia beta driver). I'd try the open source nvidia driver, but (it seems that) there's no support for my chipset yet.
    Currently I'm using Adobe's Flash64 alpha, before that I used various versions fo the nspluginwrapper. 32-bit Flash also caused high CPU load, but it wasn't that much and it may have been related to nspluginwrapper rather than anything else; however I have got the impression that things became even worse with the switch to the x64 alpha (performance-wise; on the other hand, it at least loads faster and doesn't crash anymore). Like said before, youtube takes one core, but it mostly works ok then, but videos with higher resolutions that youtube's are practically impossible to watch (except when there is very little movement in the film). Neither Flash hardware acceleration on nor off makes any difference.
    I've already read half of the web, searched in forums, wikis, etc., but didn't find anybody with the same problem. When Flash64 was released and people were reporting good improvements, I was hoping it would be the same for me...
    What I'm looking for is suggestions of things to try... I'm out of ideas what to try and where to look. It just seems strange that I seem to have problems that others don't...
    Thanks for reading and for any comments.

  • Permanent high CPU load and timeouts in communication channels

    Dear Colleagues,
    we've a strange issue since last week. At first we had an problem with a redirect to the cytrix online booking engine within the travel management application of our SAP NW Portal. There is a redirect.jsp file deployed in our PI system that connects to cytrix and passes the URL with session link and session cookie to our Portal. We fixed that issue by restarting the PI system.
    We have a PI 7.0 stack 23 on HP-UX.
    After restarting we found that we've got a very high CPU load (about 75% overall CPU, or 300% at 4 CPUs) probably caused by very frequent (3 per second) minor garbage collection runs (as seen in GC.log).
    On friday we had timeouts within one of our communication channels in the PI system.
    We changed the heap size from 2GB to 3GB and the new generation from 341MB to 768MB and restarted the PI system. But after a few ours the system uses 75% RAM of the CPU high CPU load and the GC runs are still the same.
    This is a short excerpt of our GC.log:

    Does anyone know what can cause the high load?
    Is the frequency of the GC runs normal?
    Can the timeouts be connected to the high CPU load?
    The error ony occurs on our productive system.
    I'd appriciate your help very much.
    Kind regards,
    Paul

    hi Paul,
    I believe an issue like that needs to be done onsite and not via a forum
    as it probably requires doing lots of checks/tests
    my suggestion would be to get a PI consultant expert with basis experience onsite or do it via OSS with SAP

  • Problem... High CPU load with HDD. Please Help

    Hello all,
    Im stuck. Ive got a MSI KA790GX which has poor HDD access/transfer, low burst rate and very high CPU load.
    As far as i know the Western Digital 640gb WD6401AALS Black should be a fast hard drive. Which according to reviews/HD Tune,
    should be:-
    Minimum 60mb/sec
    Maximum 120mb/sec
    Average 95mb/sec
    Access 12ms
    Burst 110mb/sec
    CPU 5%
    No matter what I try, i always get poor results...
    My MSI KA790GX
    Minimum 41mb/sec ~ 54mb/sec
    Maximum 104mb/sec ~ 108mb/sec
    Average 86mb/sec ~89mb/sec
    Access 12ms
    Burst 60mb/sec ~ 80mb/sec
    CPU 26% ~ 44%!!!!!!!!
    I could accept not getting the same high speed results as the review/reference, even if the burst rate sucked.
    But one of the cores goes to 50%-60% load during hdd activity. Thats just crazy!!
    I have tried...
    IDE mode, AHCI, RAID Ready, RAID Single Disk
    SATA Port 1, 2, 3, 4 + 5
    Different SATA cables
    Flashed bios, cleared bios, optimised defaults, failsafe defaults
    Windows XP 32bit, Vista 32bit, Vista 64bit. fresh installs
    MSI CD Drivers, MSI Web Drivers, AMD/ATI Web Drivers
        ... and combinations of.
    I have also tested the WD640gb Black on another older PC, with Nvidia (55?) chipset and slower (1.9ghz x2) cpu.
    Transfer rates were slightly better than my KA790GX but, Burst Rate = 115mb/sec and CPU usage = 13%.
    I also tried a Seagate 1.5tb (ST31500341AS) on both PCs,
    Nvidia chipset
    Minimum 65mb/sec
    Maximum 134mb/sec
    Average 107mb/sec
    Access 14ms
    Burst 83mb/sec
    CPU 7%
    On my MSI KA790GX
    Minimum 55mb/sec
    Maximum 120mb/sec
    Average 100mb/sec
    Access 14ms
    Burst 87mb/sec
    CPU 33%!!!!
    Could someone please please help, ive spent hours and hours on this. Its doin my head in.
    I just hope its something stupid ive missed, cos i still not used my HD4850 from christmas :-(
    Thanks.

    Not sure how to check PIO/DMA mode on a SATA device. IDE devices show DMA enabled.
    BIOS version 1.4 - 29 December 2008, and now version 1.51
    Fredrik
    I have Vista 64, but i did try XP32 and Vista32 and got similar poor results.
    I tested HDD speed with, HD Tune 2.55 and HD Tune 3.50 trial.
    No auto-start programs really, Windows clean installs + any drivers.
    Quadrifoglio Verde
    CPU @ default 2800mhz, All mem bios options to auto/defaults
    Windows Experience Index, CPU Score = 5.3
    AMD Overdrive
     Integer Computation = 8220
     Floating Point Computation = 5325
     Memory speed = 1770
     Cache Speed = 10790
     System Performance = 7403
    Bas
    I used HDTune because I could reference to other results. Whats a better program to use?
    Windows Experience Index, HDD Score = 5.9.
    But I have no reference and cant be sure of cpu load.
    Sepher
    Bios defaults to C&C and C1E off so i have tried them. Also windows power settings, balanced/high performance.
    UPDATE
    Reinstalled Vista64 but loaded the AHCI driver from the disk config screen. This seems to have stopped the high cpu usage during disk activity.
    HDTune with Windows Power settings @ High Performance,
    Min = 52mb/sec
    Max = 106mb/sec
    Ave = 88mb/sec
    Access = 12ms
    Burst = 77mb/sec
    CPU = 3.4% 
    HDTune with Windows Power settings @ Balanced
    Min = 54mb/sec
    Max = 104mb/sec
    Ave = 87mb/sec
    Access = 12ms
    Burst = 65mb/sec
    CPU = 12%
    So now transfer speed is about 10% slower than reference. But burst speed is terrible.
    I also used IBM Feature Tool to change the HDD AAM to 'performance mode' 254 as suggested elsewhere.
    Long shot as the hdd performs ok with other hardware. same results.
    Also MSI support asked me to try a newer bios, version 1.51. same results.
    Anyone know what the AMD 7-Series Chipsets Disk Performance Utility does, and should i run it in Vista64?
    Thanks for all the replies, hope i can sort this, not played any PC games since Quake 3 on my ti4600...

  • DMVPN phase 3 - scalability - nhrp generates high cpu load

    Hey all.
    Been running into a scalability issues with DMVPN. Mainly caused (as I see it) by NHRP.
    Scenario:
    IOS-SLB-based DMVPN solution in a dual-cloud setup. Practically it's 2 separate solutions with spokes having 2 tunnels (one in each cloud). See attachment sketch. We're running a phase 3 hierarchy design (trying at least)
    Spoke routers:
    - 2500 routers in a mixture of c871, c881, c2800, c2900. Need to scale to at least twice that.
    - Spoke-to-spoke is heavily used
    Farm routers:
    - Cisco 7201 with VAM2+. Around 1 router per 350 spokes (+1 for secondary tunnel)
    Superhub:
    - ASR 1004 (one for primary and one for secondary dmvpn-cloud).
    We're not running any IPSEC between the farms and the superhubs. Just regular unencrypted DMVPN (mGRE).
    Problem:
    - NHRP is causing high CPU load on the ASRs. With around 2000 spokes up and running on DMVPN the CPU is overloaded with NHRP traffic. We're talking like 60-70% load caused by the NHRP process alone!
    We're using 'ip nhrp interest' on all the spokes - and farms. We're in need of the spoke-to-spoke functionality so we allowing LAN-segments of our customers but denying everything else.
    Solutions?
    1. Turning off all NHRP resolutions? Basically remove any directly spoke-spoke communications (denying everything on the interest list). We can't go there since a lot of our customers are in dire need for directly spoke-spoke connectivity (due to latency). Haven't tested that it will actually give the much needed scalable solution either (we're facing around 5000 spokes in the next 2-3 years).
    2. Chopping the DMVPN solution up in lesser VPN-blocks. This will administratively be a nightmare.
    3. ?
    Will really appreciate if anyone have a input here. It's really hard finding anything about a LARGE scale phase3 design on the web. Everything I find seems to mix stuff from small-scale phase 2 and 3 - making it rather messy cooking reciept for a small breakfast while I need a 7 course perfect dinner
    When will Cisco come with an updated design guide btw?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you for your quick reply.
    Our ASRs (rp1) are acting as BGP RR while the farm routers are setup as RR clients.
    We haven't tried connecting spokes directly to the ASRs but we have seen the same symptoms on the 7613s (sup720) and the 7200-platform.
    Earlier the 7600 had the same role the ASRs have today. We were expecting that the ASRs should be doing "a better job" in terms of CPU load but we were wrong (NHRP generated around 10% more cpu load on the ASRs in comparison).
    We concluded that the ASRs have a less optimized OS (coding) being rather new and all. Further we're not all happy about the stability of the platform (clear ip nhrp or taking a shutdown on the tunnel in the current situation will crash the router. 15.1(2)S1 and 15.1(3)S0a adv ip services). Haven't made a TAC case of it yet but will (has to be a bug as I see it since the 7200/7600 is handling this just fine).
    Due to what I mentioned above I don't dare to debug the problem in production time and have to wait until the next scheduled maintenance window for some decent debug output (24. Oct).
    We've contacted Cisco AS for assistance since it's hard to find local consultants (Norway) with enough knowledge of such scenario.
    I just hope it's a config-issue and not a design issue, but we're willing to to whatever for this to scale to the thousands.

  • VI causes high CPU load after several days of running

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem. I have craeted a test bench control VI and it runs on five PCs, controling five test benches. All PCs have almost the same hardware, same motherboard, same CPU, etc.
    Normaly the CPU load is around 50% when I run the VI, but at one PC the CPU load climbs up to 85% after several days (maybe one week) of continuous running and the PC is almost tied up - the VI execution becomes very slow (10 times slower) and the mouse only moves very slowly.
    First I thought that the PC has a problem but the problem dissapears as soon as I stop and restart the VI!
    I don't even have to terminate LabVIEW - only my VI and then everything is okay again.
    The problem does not seem to occur at the other four PCs, but I can not tell for sure.
    The task manager says only LabVIEW causes the CPU load - swap file utilisation is little.
    Is there a way to analyze what causes the high CPU load?
    I Use LabVIEW 7.1 professional
    Operating System: Win XP (SP 2 or 3 I don't remember)
    P.S. I have no loops without wait-functions.
    Greetings Johannes
    Using LabVIEW 7.1 and 2009 recently
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Do all PCs have the same amount of RAM?
    What is the memory use over time as seen by the windows taks manager. Does it increase gradually?
    An increase in resource usage if often cause by sloppy programming.
    Do you grow arrays forever or constantly resize arrays in memory? (built array, insert into array, delete from array)
    Do you often create new references and never close them?
    What does the program actually do? In my opinion, a constant 50% CPU load seems too high for my taste. It means it would not even be able to keep up on slightly older hardware.

  • Osx 10.9 Mail & Safari High cpu load

    Hello,
    A few weeks ago I updated to OSX 10.9. After working a few days with it, I run into several high CPU load issues.
    2 processes: mail-webmateriaal and safari-webmateriaal (dutch).
    Now I use Chrome instead of Safari which solves 50% of my problem, but it is not so easy to change to another mail-client...
    Does anyone have a clue about the possible cause, but even more important, a solution?
    Best regards,
    Johan

    jvdstoel,
    Ditto.  I have the exact same OS 10.9 issue on a Late 2008 iMac with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo that is maxed out at 4 GB RAM (seemed like a lot of RAM at the time). 
    Mail, Safari, and Firefox--but not Chrome--whether running any 1, 2, or all 3 programs together keeps the CPU running hard at and often above 100%.  This occurs even when the programs a sitting idle from the user's perspective.  Disabling all extensions on Safari and Firefox did not help.  Nor did running Onyx to clear all catches system wide.
    Calling on anyone with a virtual PhD in Maverics (or real Apple OS 10.9 street-smarts) for suggestions. 
    Best,
    Pete

  • High CPU load after firefox 18.0 update, causing periodical hang

    Hi, I am basically getting crazy here after the update to firefox 18.0 yesterday.
    Firefox periodically causes very high CPU load, which makes it impossible to use.
    http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/702/firefox18.png
    The problem does not occur immediately after restart, but you can already see the spikes of CPU load in the taskmanager with a peak of ~4%. After a couple of minutes this will go up to almost 50% utilizing a whole core and causing the hangs.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    This does not happed outside working hours. The router is used only for VPN's (No NATing). It terminates around 25 tunnels but there is not a lot of traffic through the tunnels.
    The extremly high load started mondat morning and continues this morning. During the weekend it was fine. Earlier we would have situations when the CPU would spike but it would soon be down to normal values.
    From what I read the above output means that the CPU load is caused by interrupts. What is the best way to troubleshoot this?

    Sorry I wasn't clear, but when I was asking about "not a lot of traffic", I was wondering about actual  volume passing through the 2811.
    When I asked about "kind of tunnels", I was wondering about how they are configured.  E.g. GRE or IPSec/GRE or VTI, encryption options, other tunnel interface options.

    why does flash player produce such a high cpu load under Mac OS X? I have a MacBook 2,1 w/ an Intel Core 2 Duo cpu. When I watch a tiny youtube movie in any browser, the fan gets really loud, and activity monitor shows 50% cpu load.

    Hi ... I use admin account only to install new software or games ... for all other uses I log in as an ordinary account
    But even when logged in with admin account the same prb persists ... cause of this flash player prb I have even stopped playing  games on FB & Zynga ...
    For this flash player problem I even took it to acer service center and since I have extended service warranty the engineers there ran acomplete check on ram, hdd, graphic card and they also did a complete fresh install of win 7 home premium 64 bit edition. They even completely serviced it, cleaned it and applied new thermal paste ...  but even they were baffled that my system can stand up to high intensity graphic games running from HDD or DVD rom or USB pen drive but if I try to run graphic flash player games for long ie castleville or watch a long movie on you tube then flash player can single handedly cause CPU usage to be constantly high leading to system getting heated up.
    Guess will just have to be content without flash ... but some sites require flash player to be enabled and therein lies the problem

  • Syslogd makes high CPU Load and standby mode doesn´t work.

    After updating to Leopard I see high CPU Load caused by syslogd daemon(40%-80%) and my MacBook has problems with standby mode. After stopping the white LED lights and CPU fan speeds up. Is there any chance to fix these problems?

    OK.. here's where I'm at with troubleshooting this. As I said before, for ME it occurred simultaneous to a low or out of memory situation. I don't know if syslogd was using my the ram, or if the low ram was a symptom of an issue that syslogd was getting caught up in reporting... but the system log file had tens of THOUSANDS of out of memory errors listed. Almost all were from dashboard.
    So... I've done the following. In dashboard I closed ALL open widgets. I disabled spaces (since in another thread someone indicated it used a lot of memory). I ran Leopard Cache Cleaner and used it to perform maintenances, run the os scripts and rebuild caches and so on. Rebooted.
    Now its working fine! Since then its been over 24 hrs and I STILL have over 300megs of ram reported free on a 1 gig system. I've used everything else like normal (safari, mail, ichat, itunes, etc..). Where the problem used to happen after a couple of hours after a reboot every time, now it seems normal. No out of mem, and syslogd is running normally (apparently).
    I will run a few apps that I havent run in a while and see if those create an issue. If not, later today I will enable spaces and see how that does after a few hours. Finally I'll add in the dashboard widgets one at a time to see if the issue lies there. I'll report back here if I discover anything.

  • Too high cpu load with HP 6510b

    Hello guys,
    I have a very high cpu load on my laptop even if nothing despite htop is running. I guess it's a problem with acpi because when I deactivate acpi completely over the bootline I have no such problems.
    How could I fix that?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello B,
    unluckily noacpi doesn't help but acpi=off. That seems to be the only way to stop the high load.
    Is there any patched acpi or something else?
    I also think I picked the bad revision with fan problems and some more...

  • High CPU load with Flash on Mac Leopard

    Dear Adobe,
    I am always running the latest version of the Flash plugin on my Macbook. Ever since even with the simplest Flash movies running in a browser (no matter whether Safari, Firefox, Camino, Opera, ...) the CPU load jumps oh so high the fans will spin at full speed and the CPU starts to create subtropic temperatures. Years ago I was running a Windows PC where the CPU load wasn't even close to such high CPU loads. Oh so many Apple users would very very much appreciate Flash Player being at least close to as efficient as the Windows version.
    Thanks in advance for making Flash movies more enjoyable on the Mac platform

    Adobe need to realize that once their great product with a lot of penetration into the web ad + ria market is starting loose its ground as they simply can't address ongoing issue on their poor flash plug-in performance other than on windows platform. There are a lot of flash enthusiast out there but this poor support from the Adobe doesn't help this much further. One of the reasons why other software vendors pushing for more open standard RIA platforms other than Flash based...
    Only suggestion that I have with Adobe is that if you can not get it right then, it may help to open up flash player source to the community. I am pretty sure that there are a lot of developers out there who can help out to drive better code base for the player and in turn make flash more adopted by non non ms windows user base. At the moment, I have installed "Click2Flash" and "FlashBlock" to save majority of CPU cycle on my MacBook Pro. Imagine the impact on this for future Adobe product. All online ad will slowly move away from flash based and in turn loosing entire market share it has successfully built over the years... Well must note that MS isn't much better either... MS RDP client is permanently turned off from my system, now I'm using CoRD instead..
    I sincerely hope to see some major performance improvements in near future.
