High CPU usage even when idle

[dmccarthy-dev]

Hi guys,

My Vagrant VM is recording high CPU usage originating from the api frameworks python process. It ranges between 29-65% CPU but averages at 37%. It does so when no endpoints are being called. Have you seen this on your local machine?

Regards,
Dónal.

Hey @dmccarthy-tssg !
Actually it is really light on my machine..
In all of our machines it is light, specially whenever it is idle.
What are you doing with the framework?

[dmccarthy-dev]

Nothing, that's the point. I just provisioned a clean Vagrant image and started all the processes. I saw high CPU usage and investigated. I was expecting couchbase to be the problem but it turned out to be the python process. Are you running it through Vagrant and/or virtualenv?

Philip recently changed the tmux(start) script to the following (cd ~/repos/api-framework/OPENiapp/ && venv/bin/python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8889). Are you running it the same way on your local machine?

Good morning Donal,
Well I am running it the exact same way locally but still nothing like this happens.
Maybe you can see in the terminal any log activity? It would be really helpful to understand why it is running..

I'm not seeing anything in the logs that can explain the high CPU. I've asked others if they aer seeing it in their Vagrant environment but nobody seems to be using Vagrant..... which is very worrying!

is this ok?
should i close it (at least at the moment) ?
