From time to time I run into a PCP archive with even the latest pmchart where
scrolling through time seems to make pmchart go into CPU hell. Discussion on
IRC with nathan helped me track down that it is the Load Avg part of the
Overview view that is part of the root cause, something to do with discrete
metrics and hinv.ncpu. If I use the vanilla load average view by itself, it
works fine.
09:01 nathans: it'd be good to send a note to the list if you could paul? this
is libpcp interp.c territory & kenj might have some additional insights
I have an archive that exhibits this I can share if it helps, or I can raise a
bugzilla ticket etc.. ?
cheers,
Paul
