In my experience I've found two reasons for this, but somehow I'm sure there are more ... 1. CF is attempting to send mail messages but does not succeed and continues to attempt to resend them. check in the folders related to mail. If you select these mails and try to delete them but fail, that means they are in use by CF. You'll have to stop CF and delete them manually, and then restart CF. 2... There is another way I know to spike the processor, but it depends on bad user form input which isn't validated, so that's unlikely to be your problem ----Original Message Follows---- Date: Mon, 02 Jul 2001 16:28:28 -0400 From: "Lee Moore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Processor Spike Hello, I recently changed enviroments for our coldfusion 4.5.1 sp2 application to a new ISP with 2 new servers. Basically we had the SQL Server 7.0 and the ColdFusion Server on the same NT 4 box. We split the DB and web/cf server onto 2 new boxes both running Windows 2k Server sp2. I spent several days configuring the new servers and we went live this morning. Now, the processor on the new cf/web server is always at 100%. ColdFusion Server is taking all the rescources. It's a single 1ghz processor with 512 ram, Windows 2k Server and coldfusion 4.5.1 sp2. It didn't start until after we went live. I have stopped and started the CF server and each time the processor goes to 100% almost instantly. I have also rebooted several times with no luck. Is there a patch I need. Both the old and the new servers have the same coldfusion version and patch. What am I missing?
