High CPU utilization

High CPU utilization - 08/08/12 12:26 PM

I'm on PingPlotter Pro 3.40.2.p, I'm monitoring 25 targets, about half with the remote agent. The computer running WinXP Pro SP3, 2.5GB RAM, dual core CPU. PingPlotter is running as a service. Lately I've been noticing the computer is sluggish a quick investigation shows PingPlotter is using a constant 50% of available CPU. When I try to restart the service the GUI goes away but the pingplotter.exe process doesn't quit. I have to kill it manually then start the service back up. Once restarted it seems fine but by the next day it's using excessive CPU again.

What additional information can I provide or what should I be looking at?

Thanks!

Hi.

We found the problem with the remote agent and high CPU use - it was settings related and we've not found any system problem with this.

Can you submit a support ticket via Help -> Email PingPlotter Support... and we'll have a look at your configuration for any possible issues?

Thanks,
Pete
