Some time ago I reported that pagezero kernel thread sometime takes
(what seems to me) a too large chunk of available CPU (30%) on a very
busy web server. There were no replies :( Since then, I've
reconfigured apache to use PHP as a fastcgi module and the problem
seems to have gotten worse - now it *always* takes ~25-30% CPU, and my
"System" time stat shows it (its almost always ~30%).
From what I can understand, pagezero thread fills kernel's pool of
zeroed pages. This looks non-threteaning, but what would cause such
high demand of zeroed pages on my system?
Generally, a whole bunch of processes that are demanding a lot or memory
and/or swapping would do it.
What does "vmstat 1" look like...?
