[Anthill-pro] What CPU usage is expected by Anthill server?

[Peter Steele]

The server still seems to be a CPU hog, with it almost always being the
number one process on the "top" list, even when the system is largely
idol. We've added 40+ agents recently, but I did not check the server's
CPU usage before adding all the new agents, and I also did not what the
CPU usage was before upgrading to 3.5. Fortunately the command failures
we were seeing the other day appear to have stopped after the reboot,
although the GUI is still very slow to respond to many typical commands.
For example, it just took 30 seconds for Anthill to respond to a click
on a project displayed in the "Your Active Projects" column of the
Dashboard. This seems to be slower than what it was in 3.4.12, but as I
indicated we have added a lot of agents lately. We'll be adding more as
well, exceeding 100 agents in the next while. Is there anything we
should do to improve performance?

Peter,

Has this been happening in a regular basis?  

What happened after the restart?

We've noticed some very slow feedback from the Anthill server today,
even coming back with failures for some operations. The Unix top command
is showing the ah3server process as taking as much as 100% CPU at times,
and is consistently the top 1 or 2 processes on the system. There are
just two builds going on, and both of course are running on agent
systems, not the server. I don't recall seeing this before. We upgraded
to 3.5 yesterday and I am wondering if that might be to blame. It's
certainly very slow right now; I'll restart the server as soon as the
builds are done...
