high cpu

What I've notice during installation

gevents takes 6x more time to build

##############################

Creating temporary files...

Recursively querying SPF records of selected whitelist mailers...

Querying webmail hosts...
Getting spf.messagingengine.com

Querying social network hosts...

Querying ecommerce hosts...

Querying bulk mail hosts...

Querying miscellaneous hosts...

Querying custom hosts...

Including scraped Yahoo! outbound hosts...

Removing invalid IPv4 CIDRs from whitelist...................................................................................................................

Sorting whitelist rules...

Writing 1063 whitelist rules to /etc/postfix/postscreen_spf_whitelist.cidr...

Reloading Postfix configuration to refresh rules...

Done!

After install the dkim keeps red with not found all other are green I'll give it more time to see if it changes

Yes, I've even purge amavisd and dkim and run the upgrade again attempting to reset the process high cpu without luck.

I'll wait to see if someone else reports thee same issue

Thanks !

@Relic180 commented on GitHub (Oct 7, 2024):

I'm experience this as well, with a fairly similar build to OP:

  • OS Type: Ubuntu
  • OS Version: 24.04 (Noble Numbat)
  • Database Type: PostgreSQL
  • Database version: 17
  • Modoboa: Last (Oct 7th)
  • installer used: Yes
  • Webserver: nginx (1.24)

Immediately after the install completed, my CPU usage shows up consistently around 80%. Prior to install, it had been between 5-15%.

I installed it yesterday originally. Overnight my VPS host capped me and sent a bunch of notifications / warnings for running at full-tilt for over 12 hours straight. Everything got stuck and unresponsive, I had to get uncapped just so I could restore from a backup image.

Trying to install again, and looks like I'm seeing the exact same thing. Restarted a couple times to be sure. CPU always hovering between 75-85%. Most terminal commands take far longer to execute than normal, etc...

Can you check which process is consuming your CPU(s) ?

@cyberarm commented on GitHub (Oct 8, 2024):

Have you checked that you're not using port 9000?
IIRC, I had a high cpu issue due to using that port and the modoboa worker attempting to bind to it, failing, and getting stuck in a loop.

Although what ultimately kicked-off the behavior was the Modoboa installation, the issue was actually with pm2.

Not entirely sure what happened, but after the install pm2 went and fetched an outdated ecosystem config that had some no-longer-valid paths in it. So as soon as the install finished, pm2 started throwing massive errors and devouring my CPU.

Once I found it and fixed the paths, everything went back to normal. Sorry about the false alarm.
