Re: Server spinning out of control...
We've got a server that occassionally becomes temporarily useless because the load average shoots up to around 150.0 or so, and then slowly winds down over a 2 minute period. I cannot seem to find the process which is putting so much load on the machine. I've tried running top with the q switch, as well as the I switch, and when top opens, I can't see anything consuming large amounts of CPU power or consuming much memory, but the load average will be incredibly high. There isn't anything unusual in /var/log/messages to indicate anything which might be causing the load average to go shooting through the ceiling. Are you running any sort of spam filtering?
