#949: High CPU from polling loop on low traffic links -------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: liamrandall | Type: Problem Status: new | Priority: Low Milestone: Bro2.2 | Component: Bro Version: git/master | Keywords: -------------------------+--------------------- In low or no traffic links Bro consumes a large amount of the CPU. Bro has a core processing loop that it needs to do regularly which involves checking for packets from interfaces, checking for communication traffic (in the case of a cluster of Bro processes), processing scheduled events, etc. It's this processing loop that is causing the CPU utilization when there is no traffic.
Moving Bro to standalone mode will reduce the CPU load on sensors with out traffic. -- Ticket URL: <http://tracker.bro-ids.org/bro/ticket/949> Bro Tracker <http://tracker.bro-ids.org/bro> Bro Issue Tracker _______________________________________________ bro-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.icsi.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/bro-dev
