I have been using ispconfig 3 for quite a while now. Recently, something is not right. Memory usage is hitting up the roof. So I upgraded from 2GB to 8GB yesterday. This morning when I check the system, I see all the 8GB used up. I feel something is not right. There might be some rogue processes running inside. I used top to see the memory usage but I can't see anything. Anyone can guide me on checking what is using up all the memory? The "show memory" in ISPconfig is not showing anything useful that I can used. Here is the top result sorted by memory: Code: top - 11:16:17 up 17:52, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.19, 0.17 Tasks: 179 total, 1 running, 178 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 6.1%us, 0.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 93.0%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.2%si, 0.0%st Mem: 8310120k total, 7544108k used, 766012k free, 348508k buffers Swap: 6080560k total, 100k used, 6080460k free, 5527868k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 4562 mysql 20 0 1222m 686m 6144 S 8 8.5 8:52.39 mysqld 5030 clamav 20 0 257m 230m 936 S 0 2.8 0:24.44 clamd 20566 amavis 20 0 60940 51m 3240 S 0 0.6 0:00.26 amavisd-new 20534 amavis 20 0 60812 51m 3240 S 0 0.6 0:00.22 amavisd-new 4488 amavis 20 0 59284 49m 2520 S 0 0.6 0:00.71 amavisd-new 24644 www-data 20 0 60184 28m 5000 S 0 0.4 0:05.06 apache2 4645 root 20 0 31148 27m 2368 S 0 0.3 0:03.98 spamd 4810 root 20 0 31148 26m 640 S 0 0.3 0:00.02 spamd 5029 root 20 0 31148 26m 548 S 0 0.3 0:00.02 spamd 5972 www-data 20 0 46824 20m 7420 S 0 0.3 0:21.19 php-cgi 12656 www-data 20 0 46840 20m 7352 S 0 0.3 0:28.86 php-cgi 24744 www-data 20 0 51180 19m 5328 S 1 0.2 0:01.66 apache2 24746 www-data 20 0 51180 19m 4708 S 0 0.2 0:00.78 apache2 24930 www-data 20 0 47856 16m 5152 S 0 0.2 0:00.75 apache2 24915 www-data 20 0 48248 16m 4736 S 0 0.2 0:00.15 apache2 24992 www-data 20 0 47892 16m 4668 S 0 0.2 0:00.17 apache2 24935 www-data 20 0 47684 15m 4436 S 0 0.2 0:01.04 apache2 24853 www-data 20 0 47196 15m 4516 S 0 0.2 0:01.13 apache2 24985 www-data 20 0 47924 15m 3760 S 0 0.2 0:00.10 apache2 24998 www-data 20 0 48156 15m 3664 S 0 0.2 0:00.04 apache2 24977 www-data 20 0 47892 15m 3732 S 0 0.2 0:00.11 apache2 25106 www-data 20 0 48112 15m 3656 S 2 0.2 0:00.05 apache2 25082 www-data 20 0 48104 15m 3640 S 0 0.2 0:00.05 apache2 24926 www-data 20 0 47908 15m 3664 S 3 0.2 0:00.20 apache2 24847 www-data 20 0 47892 15m 3668 S 0 0.2 0:00.11 apache2 5449 root 20 0 25824 14m 2384 S 0 0.2 0:18.07 ruby 5693 www-data 20 0 39000 12m 6832 S 0 0.2 0:20.21 php-cgi 24912 www-data 20 0 43316 11m 4860 S 0 0.1 0:00.34 apache2 24905 www-data 20 0 44072 11m 3856 S 0 0.1 0:00.04 apache2 5535 root 20 0 40988 10m 6328 S 0 0.1 0:04.34 apache2 5617 www-data 20 0 36860 10m 6868 S 0 0.1 0:20.86 php-cgi 18679 www-data 20 0 36416 9600 6176 S 0 0.1 0:00.03 php-cgi 14266 www-data 20 0 35784 8260 5720 S 0 0.1 0:00.01 php-cgi 16169 www-data 20 0 35784 8164 5640 S 0 0.1 0:00.30 php-cgi 20932 www-data 20 0 35784 8028 5540 S 0 0.1 0:00.01 php-cgi 24888 www-data 20 0 41520 7096 2196 S 0 0.1 0:00.02 apache2 24927 www-data 20 0 41516 6516 1540 S 0 0.1 0:00.00 apache2 24881 www-data 20 0 41528 6396 1544 S 0 0.1 0:00.01 apache2 25063 www-data 20 0 41520 6368 1524 S 0 0.1 0:00.00 apache2
running Munin stats or Piwik or Thinkup ? had same problem with running them all on the same server Solution is to split them or let Piwik and Thinkup update only once a day not @ the same time!
yes, our developer just install piwik on the server. That was when I notice the load starting to go up. So I upgraded the memory since there are some spare lying around. I did not expect piwik to be taking all the extra memory after upgrade. That's 6GB of extra memory. Is piwik really that memory hungry program? What can be done to reduce it's memory footprint? It is db internsive or web intensive software?
