How can I solve high CPU usage, 100%, all the time, on OpenERP v7 running on Ubuntu 12.04 x64?

Posted on August 8, 2014

Hi Community,

I am running OpenERP V7, installed on Ubuntu 12.04 x64 server hosted by Digital Ocean.

I am experiencing high CPU usage averaging 99%, all the time. As a result, the system is slow and unresponsive at all times.

I have increased the server infrastructure to 4 cores with 8gb RAM but the performance remains the same.

This happens with only a single user logged into the system! – so user volume is not the issue.

Digital Ocean suggested this was due to the load OpenERP placed on Postgres.

Has anyone experienced this problem? And is there a solution?

The goal is to run with approximately 500 – 1000 users so I am concerned if the system cannot cope with one user.

Really need some help here!

many thanks in advance,

Mark

I’d like to know the answer to this, too. Have you installed lots of the OpenERP modules? Or only a few? How do you know what CPU usage is on OpenERP?
