Multi-Processor usage
Dave,
Thanks, that's helpful. Unfortunately this is my only multi-processor box. Setting the "affinity" seemed to help when I deselected 2 of the cpu's, but when all were selected all the processing quickly went to either the first or third cpu. However this was short lived as it gave me an ASR not long after. I'm not sure if it was from setting affinity or setting priority, in any case it must have made it unstable.

However, I noticed in taskmanger and CIM that only the first cpu is doing the majority of the processing (about 80% utilization) while the remaing cpu's are floating around 6% utilization. Is there a tweak somewhere to load balance across all cpu's? The app has to be properly threaded to take advantage of multiple CPUs. (My company's primary database is not, so on my dual-processor DB server one CPU does all the heavy lifting while the other handles the OS and other apps. Bummer, but it is what it is.) Have you seen this app take advantage of SMP on other boxen? |
