[Dxspider-support] CPU usage 100%

[Gunnar Widell]

Hi,

I reported the same problem some month ago.
The problem showed up after very long time of operation. After this issue
stared for me, I have had about five "stops", with some days or even some
week in between.

I have not found the root cause to this, but suspect that it migth have
come after an perl upgrade or similar.

Fortunately it has been stable for:
Cluster: 348 nodes, 40 local / 2533 total users  Max users 4590  Uptime 33
15:15
