Hi,
This command used to be hidden but became visible in
the last year or so. Don't mess with it unless you
need to. If you use Voice, etc it may be useful to
tweak this value I've heard.
Here are my notes on this (from a friend at cisco):
CSCdp38617 requesting that process-max-time be
unhidden
CSCdp38633 requesting that process-max-time be
documented
static ulong process_max_time; /* Max allowed tick
count for any process */
sets the max voluntary duration for a process. i
believe this is used to set how long a process may
run. i have seen the command parsed into the config
when you load recent (11.3(9.x)T IPSec) code.
------------------
It somewhat limits the amount of time a given process
can hold the CPU for (in milliseconds). It's a knob
that I think has always been there, but recently
became un-hidden because if processes run for too long
and we're process-switching voice traffic for some
reason, voice quality suffers across the box.
Unless you're process-switching voice, you don't need
to touch it. If you are running voice, dorking with it
(down to 50-100ms or so) may improve voice quality
across the box
------------------------------
we limit the amount of time a process level activity
can hold onto CPU in case we were process switching
voice traffic. otherwise voice quality is going to
suffer.
