Hello Folks,
Although we have had this issue before, this time it has had me stumped. The server load seems to spike to 150 or so and renders all unusable. Sites are not served and all goes down until a reboot or waiting for 10 - 15 minutes tends to bring the server load back to some usable level.
I've gone through all the logs and have found absolutely no clue. No formmails, no spam etc
At times I have noticed that httpd tends to start growing in size. Via the top process it can be seen taking up sizes above 200MB or so. I have checked access_logs , CPU usage from WHM and there is nothing weird at all !
Even the httpd, if restarted when the size starts growing, tends to function normally and brings down loads to around 1 or so.
Where else can i see ? I seriously am stumped and need some clues as to how I get about isolating the problem.
Warmest Regards,
