Hello,

I have been encountering this exact issue since version 1.6.0.

Rather than restarting the entire service, I terminate only the threads that are consuming excessive CPU resources. This way, I can avoid interrupting service for my users. I would be happy to provide any necessary details to help move the troubleshooting process forward :)

Hi,





Thank you.

We have issues with the *guacd* process. After a certain period of time, the guacd process starts consuming 100% CPU, and multiple processes keep stacking up until we restart the service. After the restart everything if fine again, but the same problem repeats. In practice, we have to restart it at least once a month. Is there anything we can extract from the existing processes (as shown in the screenshot below) before we kill/restart them or from the logs that could help you analyze why this is happening?
