  1. PONode API taking 100% CPU, node-tick-processor output looks cryptic
    text
    copied!<p>I have a node API which normally handles traffic quite well. However, in our peak times, it gets into this state where it starts using 100% CPU and needs to be restarted. After restarting, it returns to a regular state for the next few days.</p> <p>Using a load testing site, I have been able to reproduce this issue. The request I am load testing is extremely simple, so I fear the problem is in a third-party library I'm using. </p> <p>I'm new to debugging node and I'm not sure what to make of the following output from node-tick-processor. Can anyone decipher this?</p> <p>Update: I'm running node v0.10.4</p> <pre><code>[Unknown]: ticks total nonlib name 5 0.0% [Shared libraries]: ticks total nonlib name 11943 49.1% 0.0% /lib64/libc-2.12.so 10754 44.2% 0.0% /usr/local/bin/node 314 1.3% 0.0% /lib64/libpthread-2.12.so 50 0.2% 0.0% 7fff318b4000-7fff318b5000 5 0.0% 0.0% /lib64/libm-2.12.so 3 0.0% 0.0% /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.17 [JavaScript]: ticks total nonlib name 40 0.2% 3.2% LazyCompile: ~read tls.js:397 36 0.1% 2.8% LazyCompile: *EventEmitter.addListener events.js:126 29 0.1% 2.3% LazyCompile: *Readable.read _stream_readable.js:226 &lt;clipped&gt; [Bottom up (heavy) profile]: Note: percentage shows a share of a particular caller in the total amount of its parent calls.
