New Issue: zone.exe 50% CPU
 
Win Server'03
2G Ram
4400 CPU x2
Perl 5.12
Express 2010

Ok, I remember this issue in the past(over a year ago) but it seemed to resolve itself over time and svn releases.

But, I am consistantly getting several zone.exes that run at 50% cpu(because of cpu cap). I have to force end the process to release the resources and let the zone reboot via eqlaunch. Some interesting observations are that zone.exes in question usually have a low Memory usage (ie 18-20M instead of the usual healthy 50-75M that zones use)

But, was wondering if anyone else is having this issue? A theory would be that I recently swapped to Perl 5.12 and Express'2010 and something is hanging on bootup. (saying bootup, because when I end those zones no one gets booted)

Seems like it is stuck in an endless loop. I would build with debug information, wait for one to hang, and attach a debugger to it and break to see what the callstack looks like. If it's in a loop you should be able to figure it out immediately, but if not you may need to resume and break a few times to see the different callstacks you get if it isn't immediately obvious.
