Imap sends cpu to 96%

mmynsberghe — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 13:02:56 GMT

Hi,On our development alfresco installation cpu jumps to 96% every half hour. For weeks now, I couldn't figure out why.Until this morning I deleted my Alfresco IMAP account in Outlook (the only imap connection to that server) … no more cpu jumps since. And indeed, Outlook synchronizes every 30 minut

Hi Mieke,

I had the same experience while evaluating 3.2 CE. Fortunately I found the CPU-Killer while testing but didn't step deeper in analysis since Paul H. stated that there a still some bugs in metadata extraction and using the template mechanism for showing standard files in the IMAP folder (there are several JIRA issues concerning IMAP). I will check the nightly builds since there are some changes checked in by dev concerning IMAP Fixes. Anyway you shouldn't use the IMAP-Adapter for production yet since it is easy to get even a big system under heavy load. Just comment it out unless it is stable.

Regards
Heiko

I have the same issue. Additionally it doesn't manage to display the whole Alfresco folder structure in imap. If I try to syncronize the Imap folders cpu jumps to 96% but after one minute Outlook says that the imap server has closed the connection. If I limit the imap mount points to only some folders it works. Does anyone know how many folders the Alfresco Imap server can handle?
