process</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>I have a zope server (2.7.4) that I maintain and every now and
then the python process that's running zope goes heywire and eats all of the
cpu resources and basically make my website stop responding. Does anyone have
any clues as to how I can debug this problem? <BR><BR>I'm not the best python
coder but I do know how to use pdb. And I'm looking for sorta where and what
pieces would be the best place to start putting the trace() bits. <BR><BR>...
but really any sort of guidance would help... here's a small bit from ps
auxwwww showing a bit of what I mean, but when it *really* goes heywire it
just eats all of my cpu and causes the load to shoot up near the 50s (on a
dual opteron 275 processor machine)
