High CPU and Memory usage help!

Hi All,

Can someone explain why we have high CPU and Memory usage on our IGNITION Scada?

Also, this project executes at times go to 50 per second:

Is there a way to find out why and how it is happening?

Is this on a Virtual Server Instance?

Yes it is.

You have something odd happening, every ~10 seconds your internal OS clock registers a drift of over a second. It is something I would expect from a server that is heavily loaded by other VMs and they are stealing a lot of the resources.

We found an issue now:

is there are better way to do polling dataset tag history as we monitoring amps of the drives to see any changes for fault finding?

Why does this need to update every second? The final dataset ends up only showing the minimum value for each ~28 second block of history, you would be better off updating every 30 seconds.

It does not matter if i change it to 60 seconds still have this:

Very strange behavior.

We have no idea what that metric is telling us, it could be literally any script on your gateway.

It is only my project causing this. If I disable it it goes back to normal.

Is there better way to find out what causing this exactly?

Any logs?

What scripts are you running in the project?

No scripts apart from what i have shown just now.

Sorry that too:

This one to set the alarm

That looks like a pretty normal memory chart. And a relatively light CPU load. My gut says nothing is wrong.

It was running polling every second on session start and as more perspective sessions are open CPU utilization went over the roof. Thanks, we did figure it out.
