This weekend at various times my server was brought down. I saw one process using over 99% of the CPU. No pages could be served while this was going on. I found the culprit. It was a Wordpress site and the script was wp-cron.php. I stopped it by adding a line to wp-config.php as http://geektnt.com/how-to-solve-wp-cron-php-high-cpu-usage.html and other sites suggested.
However, I am still confused how this one process was able to block all other pages. I have MaxClients set to 100 and 15 other cores that they can be run on. Why didn't my server continue to serve requests? Thanks for any insight. -- D'Arcy J.M.
