If your CPU is very low (at or around 10%), try to determine if the problem is network related using the netstat command as follows:
# netstat -an | grep port |
A performance drop may be the result of the network if a client is not receiving information despite the fact that access logs show that results work sent immediately. Running the ping andtraceroute commands can help you determine if network latency is responsible for the problem.
Collect swap information to see if you are running out of memory. Memory may be your problem if the output of the swap command is small.

On Solaris, use the output of the prstat command to identify if other processes could be impacting the system performance. On Linux and HP-UX, use the top command.
