My CPU usage is consistently high (90+%):

Is there a way to get a breakdown of what processes are using the CPU?

I've seen this happen with subscriptions of large number of tags or other processing stuff.

I've also seen this happening using jpeg cameras going to the video feed control with camera settings sending too much information.

Is the Ignition Gateway on a dedicated server?

You can generate and download a Diagnostics Bundle from your gateway's overview page:

The downloaded zip file contains these files:

You can try diving into these yourself, or you can send them off to IA support so they can take a look.
