New Disk Usage Viewer causing high load

[jrehmer]

On 9.7.7 Release-15 I've noticed that when I'm in WHM and go to the new Disk Usage Viewer it leaves the cgi process running at a very high load on the server. I have to manually kill the whostmgrd and the diskusage.cgi processes manually otherwise they will continue to run forever (even after I've clicked logout).

Anyone got any ideas or should I submit a bug?

After killing the processes, then click on System Health > Show Current Disk Usage the problem occurs.

Nope. Didn't fix it. Still a problem here.

I don't know if this is related, but it's also reporting Critical Disk Usage Warnings to me like this:

"The account with the username 'nameremoved', is running out of disk space.
Please remove some files from this account, or ask the administrator to increase your disk quota.
You have currently used 410.03% of your disk space."

When that site is nowhere near even 20% of it's disk usage.
