That’s likely a garbage collection “pause-the-world”. When happening so fast, that suggests you haven’t given your gateway enough memory to work with (set in ignition.conf and restart). Show your gateway’s Performance Status page.
(Tagged 7.9) Also ensure G1GC has a maximum pause milliseconds target. I recommend 100ms, as the default is 1 second. That doesn’t play well with the 1 second clock drift detector.
Yep, that looks fine. Not sure what else you can do. Call support and have them help you figure out why the CPU usage is constantly >30% maybe? That may very well be fine, but it’s worth looking at to be sure.
Aside from the longer pauses your system looks fine. Longer pauses like that are usually only seen on crappy hardware or when running in a virtual machine.
This may or may not be relevant, I recently discovered that vulnerability scanning can spike CPU usage dramatically and cause clock drifts. In my case it was a daily Nessus scan, adding a 2nd CPU resolved it for me.
