Currently our staging IIS puts 100% load on the CPU.
(I wasn’t allowed to post with an image so I’ll link it: http://i40.tinypic.com/1444qww.png)
I currently have been unable to find the cause of this behavior since the stack of the thread that causes the high load does not contain any application specific references. If anyone sees more in this screenshot then I or had a similar experience I’m glad to hear it.
Info:
Windows Server 2k8R2
If any more information is required I shall try to provide.
Thanks.
We found that one of the business layer classes was loading a 50k+ table into a dictionary in memory in its initialization. This caused the long wait as well as the high load. Changing this swiftly fixed our problem.
