In case you haven't noticed: Wikipedia is f**king slow again about once in an hour. At least the German Wp. Time for restricting special pages and searches again? Or should we start with SQL queries this time? I hope not everybody is as annoyed as I am. Kurt

Any idea if any host-admin is left ( Lee and Brion are off )? -- Smurf smurf(a)AdamAnt.mud.de ------------------------- Anthill inside! ---------------------------

There's a zombie httpd process on larousse, taking >90% CPU time. Can't restart httpd, and have no permission to kill the process. Maybe someone should just reboot? Magnus Thomas Corell wrote:

Hmm, I don't see it. Somebody else must have cleaned it up. I can take care of requests requiring root privs if needed (with everybody gone). -- Nick Reinking -- eschewing obfuscation since 1981 -- Minneapolis, MN

No, it's still there. PID 6824, now taking 50-90% CPU time. It is the only httpd process left. top even shows it as "zombie". Nick Reinking wrote:

Well, it is the parent process, and top is saying: 6824 root 16 0 928 172 112 S 71.0 0.0 451:32 0 httpd Still, it is taking a lot of CPU time - I'll restart it just in case. (there are lots of httpd processes running, too...) There... restarted. :) -- Nick Reinking -- eschewing obfuscation since 1981 -- Minneapolis, MN

BTW, it only shows one process in top because Apache 2 is multithreaded, and top doesn't show threads by default (I believe). So, that's why it is taking up so much CPU time (in top). In any case, I do see quite a few httpd processes dropping off and dying as defunct processes. That is strange, and I'm not seeing any good reason for it in the error log... -- Nick Reinking -- eschewing obfuscation since 1981 -- Minneapolis, MN
