I have seen substantial increase in CPU usage since upgrading this weekend. The CPU usage of RUBY appears to be the primary driver. This was referenced by another discourse user in this topic . As you can see from the graphs below, CPU usage and load pre-upgrade were much lower than post-upgrade. Th…

OK this is reverted now, https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/31119 Let me know if the commit restores performance.

Lets leave this in support for a bit till we determine if there is a bug. Can you enter the container and run an htop from the inside (you will have to install it) that way you will be able to tell which specific process is consuming high amounts of cpu. You can get a bit more visibility using a t…

htop views.

Yes, it resolved the high CPU issue. My 1-minute and 5-minute load is about 1/3 of the previous values. That is with htop and netdata now running on the system.

Sorry about this, the mini_racer upgrade has been a big adventure. Hopefully we get through it soon.

Thank you for the fast response to investigate. I am sure you had other things planned for the day versus a rollback. As a new Discourse user, 2 weeks since migration, the product has been great to work with.

Similar story here aswell. <a class="lightbox" href="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/7/9/0/7909cda076ed8c1eab27eb66486a635f8c237e57.jpeg" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/hgKMbJLKh7yYtUl99rh9isuwU4v.jpeg?dl=1" title="The image displays a detailed graph with two charts: the upper chart is a colorful line graph showing CPU usage over time, highlighted with a significant peak on January 27th, marked with CPU usage of 2.03%, alongside the lower chart indicating system load in a line graph format, featuring negligible...

Here is a performance review 18 hours after the rebuild. The load table says it all.

Note, closing the loop, the bug causing it was this: https://github.com/rubyjs/mini_racer/commit/edaa9e862abcd9945fbfcdd115d02dd7326569cf I updated the gem. One immediate advantage is that it appears this version of v8 uses slightly less memory which is nice.

I installed the latest release last night with the fix. CPU usage is back to historic levels. Thank you for all the great work.
