Server Load, Can I kill this process?

[MrTall]

Hello all,

Recently my server load has been averaging 2+, usually it's 0.4. I have noticed in WHM there's a process running using 85% memory. It has the command line (please note I've changed a few things to "x" to hide the identity of the site):

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/analog +CIMAGEDIR /images/ +CDOMAINSFILE /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/share/analog/usdom.tab +CCHARTDIR ./ +CALLCHART ON +CLANGFILE /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/share/analog/us.lng +COUTFILE /home/xxxxxxx/tmp/analog/2.html +CLOCALCHARTDIR /home/xxxxxxx/tmp/analog/ +CCACHEOUTFILE /home/xxxxxx/tmp/analog/cache.out +CCACHEFILE /home/xxxxxx/tmp/analog/cache +CVHOST ON +COSREP ON +CBROWSER ON +CFULLBROWSER ON +CREDIRREF ON +CREFSITE ON +CFAILREF ON +CLOGFORMAT COMBINED +CHOSTNAME 675.cc +CHOSTURL http://xxx.xxx/ /usr/local/apache/domlogs/xxx.xxx.bkup

Is this process killable, or essential. If it is stopable, what is it and how can I prevent it from running?
Thanks for any help! :D

You may want to go into Tweak Settings and disable Analog stats. Yes, you can kill this process, but cpanellogd will just keep spawning it until it's disabled.

Thanks vanessa, killed the process and the load went right down to 0.45. Been steady since! I think I disabled the analog stats by un-checking the boxes in the server configuration. I guess I'll find out if the load peaks again! Thanks once again.
