             Summary: Disabling accept thread causes high amount of kernel 
spin-lock
                 Key: TS-1951
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-1951
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Leif Hedstrom


When testing various options, I noticed a problem where a kernel spin-lock 
would consume a noticeable amount of CPU (like, half of all CPUs). This was on 
a dual-socket 6-core system (so total of 24 logical CPUs, 12 physical and 12 
HT). It would also peg one SIRQ handled (for /0) at close to 100%.

I tracked this down to disabling accept threads. I don't know why this is 
happening, but it clearly shows that keeping accept-threads enabled is better. 
The downside is that accept-threads currently experiences higher latencies.
