Hello,
Under Linux, I have two running Squeak instances with Superswiki and Smallwiki, however these ones eat all the CPU cycles of my server. Sadly this badly affect other runnung services.
Does any of you know how to limit the CPU use?
Run the Squeak instances at lower priority, e.g.
$ nice squeak myserver.image&
Or this, which also drops the priority:
$ nohup squeak myserver.image&
This will reduce the cpu hogging, and will have little or no negative impact on the perceived Squeak performance.
If you need to change the priority of a Squeak server that is already running, use the "renice" command.
But of course something else may be wrong if your Squeak servers are gobbling up 100% of the cpu.
