Use the following procedure to identify and remedy CPU hardware bottlenecks on the appliance. Based on the results of two analytic datasets, suggested corrective actions are provided to increase data throughput.
If the appliance CPUs reach 100% utilization for more than 15 minutes, you should consider adding more CPUs or upgrading to faster CPUs.
A single CPU core operating at 100% utilization while the others are relatively idle is a likely indication of a single-threaded and/or single-client workload. Consider dividing your workload among multiple clients, or investigate a multi-threaded implementation of your client application to better utilize the many CPU cores offered by other controller models.
