STILL trying to track down high CPU load since the upgrade to 3.3.x. This morning one of my nTop instances that normally runs < 10% (even on 3.3.10) jumped to about 50%. It might go even higher but I have another instance also running at 50% - it was 90% before this one jumped.
Anyone, the netflow thread is usually number 5 - and in this case is as well. The thread taking all the CPU is number 1, which is typically the "main" process. Thread 1 and 5 are usually the busiest, but when thread 1 is taking roughly 10x the cpu as thread 5, something is wrong. I'm thinking it was running along all fine and happy until some set of conditions occurred that caused it to freak out - some sort of race / locking issue? Nothing changed "significantly" in my network to account for the 5 - 10 fold jump in util for this instance. Roughly the same number of flows, pps, hosts, sessions, etc. It was 5%, then bang - 50% and been there ever since... I CAN attach to this with gdb and look at stuff - if someone smarter than me can assist. I can make since of SOME of the gdb output, but not having a strong development / debugging background is limiting me. TIA!
