Hi guys,
I have a server that till last night had been up for 85 days without a
problem.
Last night I downloaded and installed the glibc and kernel updates for the
box.
(then I ran MandrakeUpdate and installed all the other packages that came
up)
(I had already updated ssl,ssh and apache)
today, it bogs down after about an hour of operation..
its running the following:
Samba
cups
postfix
apache
iptables
pppoe
Here is a report from TOP when I ran a cgi script (a simple one that just
prints out html, no processing)
like I said, yesterday, before the updates, the box was flawless... quiet
zippy...
even top shouldn't be using 30+ percent of the CPU...
This thing has 160mb ram, and top indicates that its not a ram issue.
the CPU is a 233MMX, which as I mentioned, was perfectly adequate prior to
the kernel/glibc updates.
(I installed the kernel, not updated.)
There seems to be something strange going on with perl or something that is
causing it to use far more
resources then it should be....
Does anyone know what the prob is and what I could try to fix it???
