[BUG] CPU suddently spikes

[yurividal]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Every couple of days, this container suddenly spikes on CPU usage, for no apparent reason. The logs don't show anything.

Restarting te container is the only way to fix this and bring CPU usage back to normal.

Is there a way to make it more verbose logging, so that I can try to understand what the container is doing when the CPU spikes?!

As mentioned, nothing shows on the container logs, nor on the Unifi Application Logs.

Expected Behavior

CPU Usage should remain stable, unless on periods of database cleanup, or upgrades.
Logs should be more detailed.

Steps To Reproduce

Run container for a few days, observe CPU usage.

WAN Usage also seemed to have spiked at the same time. So, seems like the container was downloading something?

[j0nnymoe]

Have you checked what process is causing that usage within the container?

[yurividal]

Have you checked what process is causing that usage within the container?

It didnt occur to me to do that.
would a simple "top" inside the container shell give me that?

I'll have to wait until the next time it happens, might be a few days

[yurividal]

@j0nnymoe it did it again, at precisely the same time today. 11:09 AM.

top, from inside the container shows java as being the process using 100% of the CPU

[yurividal]

This is the full command, and it runs as user abc:

java -Xmx1024M -Dlog4j2.formatMsgNoLookups=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dapple.awt.UIElement=true -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+ExitOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:+CrashOnOutOfMemoryError --add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/java.time=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/sun.security.util=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/java.io=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.rmi/sun.rmi.transport=ALL-UNNAMED -jar /usr/lib/unifi/lib/ace.jar start

when digging deeper into the tree, seems to be related to "schedule-analyt" ?
