Update - Sorting by running htop --sort PERCENT_CPU
Snippet of processes running htop --sort PERCENT_CPU
I have a Ubuntu 18.04.3 Droplet running on DigitalOcean.
The CPU seems to be at a constant ~100%.
I have tried the following to find out why:
Running the
top
command%Cpu(s): 0.0 us, 12.4 sy, 87.0 ni, 0.7 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st
I noticed the
ni
process is running highBut can't see any high CPU in the Process Table - Snippet of processes running
top
Running the
htop
command- CPU seems high, but again I can't see anything obvious in the Process Table - Snippet of processes running
htop
- CPU seems high, but again I can't see anything obvious in the Process Table - Snippet of processes running
I have read the following tutorials:
- How To Monitor CPU Use on DigitalOcean Droplets
- How To Use ps, kill, and nice to Manage Processes in Linux
This is a very small site with a single API.
Am I missing something or is there an underlying issue?
Thanks
