High CPU load, on accounting only server. It using all available CPU, and not keeping up with what's being sent to it. It's a P3 900Mhz. Fedora Core 3, freeradius 1.0.1 installed from "yum install". I'm accepting radius accounting data from several Redback SMS1800s (7 in total) I'm just logging to the plain text detail file. Peaked at about 20MB per hour of detail logs.
I didn't think logging this would be very cpu intensive. Is this just too high a load that needs a more powerful system, or is there some processing of the incoming data that may be going on that I can disable? top - 18:58:15 up 2 days, 21:31, 1 user, load average: 31.97, 32.10, 31.99 Tasks: 55 total, 1 running, 54 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 26.2% us, 73.8% sy, 0.0% ni, 0.0% id, 0.0% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 515904k total, 504440k used, 11464k free, 76172k buffers Swap: 1048568k total, 208k used, 1048360k free, 345960k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19478 radiusd 15 0 327m 4264 1368 S 99.8 0.8 19:00.14 radiusd 19557 root 16 0 3296 928 756 R 0.3 0.2 0:00.07 top -- Justin - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
