WHM 78 -- High CPU usage by MirrorSearch_pingtest
I have noticed since updating to WHM 78 (78.0.11) the server load averages (short term) have been around twice their normal level -- usually around 0.33 they're now often around 0.67 + ( highest was over 1.5 )
Exploring what is using resources, the highest unusual user is:
Specifically:
Which comes up at 4-5% CPU usage (far higher than any other single process) 1) Is this something that should be a concern, or is this expected to now give this much server load? (ie does the httpupdate pingtest auto run when I access WHM [and read the server load figures] for instance? 2) Can I adjust how often or how long this pngtest runs? 3) Is this high load indicative of a pingtest problem?
