Just noticed, after digging around in the DB logs from my MQTT instrumentation, that the last spike correlated with a jump in data transferred out of the network interface:
Typical values are much less (see below), so this would seem to validate the "rouge bots hypothesis", currently leading the candidate to explain these periodic spikes:
This is also the first "hard correlation" of a spike with network interface iostats, so, let's see if my code in the post before this one will trap the next big spike
we have an unix system which has
load average normally about 20.
but while i am running a particular unix batch which performs heavy
operations on filesystem and database average load
reduces to 15.
how can we explain this situation?
while running that batch idle cpu time is about %60-65... (0 Replies)
Hello all, I have a question about load averages.
I've read the man pages for the uptime and w command for two or three different flavors of Unix (Red Hat, Tru64, Solaris). All of them agree that in the output of the 2 aforementioned commands, you are given the load average for the box, but... (3 Replies)
Hello, Here is the output of top command. My understanding here is,
the load average 0.03 in last 1 min, 0.02 is in last 5 min, 0.00 is in last 15 min.
By seeing this load average, When can we say that, the system load averge is too high?
When can we say that, load average is medium/low??... (8 Replies)

Hi ,
I am using 48 CPU sunOS server at my work.
The application has facility to check the current load average before starting a new process to control the load.
Right now it is configured as 48. So it does mean that each CPU can take maximum one proces and no processe is waiting.

Hi,
I am getting a high load average, around 7, once an hour. It last for about 4 minutes and makes things fairly unusable for this time.
How do I find out what is using this. Looking at top the only thing running at the time is md5sum.
I have looked at the crontab and there is nothing... (10 Replies)

alex4(6) Games Manual alex4(6)NAME
alex4 - Alex the Allegator 4, a retro platform game
SYNOPSIS
alex4 [gamefile]
DESCRIPTION
Guide Alex the Allegator through the jungle in order to save his girlfriend Lola from evil humans who want to make a pair of shoes out of
her.
Alex the Allegator 4 is a platform game in the style of old Gameboy games. You can play the game with a keyboard or a joystick. On the
keyboard the following keys are used:
Arrow keys Movement
Alt Jump
Control Shoot (only when you've found eggs to fire!)
When you're on the menu screen, you can choose the window size with the following keys:
1 160x120 window
2 320x240 window
3 640x480 window
4 full-screen
CUSTOM MAPS
The Alex the Allegator homepage links to many user-contributed maps. Each set should contain several ".map" files and a text file describ-
ing the collection. To play the maps, simply start alex4 with the name of the text file as argument.
If you want to create your own maps, you can use the built-in map editor (described below), but you'll need to create the description file
yourself. This is a plain text file that needs to list the file names of your maps between "#start#" and "#end#" markers (these markers
are not optional). You can include a description of the maps outside these markers. For example, for a collection of three maps:
In this game, Alex must rescue the Yellow Tetris Piece from the pirates of Ching Shih.
#start#
journey.map
sea-of-despair.map
endgame.map
#end#
USING THE MAP EDITOR
Use the map editor to create your own maps. You can enter the map editor from the menu screen or by pressing F1 while playing a custom
map. The basic editor commands are:
Shift+L load an existing map
Shift+S save the map
Insert+Left/Right widen the map
Delete+Left/Right shorten the map
F1 change the map's properties, e.g. its name.
Maps are composed of tiles. Tiles can contain scenery, enemies, items and other game objects. The mouse cursor shows the currently
selected tile. To draw tiles, use the left mouse button. You can cycle through the available tiles by using the z and x keys, choose a
tile from a palette using the p key, or pick a tile from the screen using the right mouse button.
Tiles can be given special behavior using the following commands:
q instant death
w map exit
e roll activator
r breakable block
t submerged in water
y on the water surface
a Alex' start location (facing left)
Shift+A Alex' start location (facing right)
Use the following command to place items and enemies:
1 extra life
2 star bonus
3 cherry bonus
4 egg
5 extra heart
Shift+Q grunt
Shift+W spear grunt
Shift+E crusher
Shift+R spike fish
Shift+T jellyfish
Shift+Y cannon
Shift+U spike truck boss
Shift+I ground pounder boss
