Huge Load after new harddisk and new OS install

Hello,

This is weird.. i was running VB and VBSEO on a Fedora server just fine for a year or so, when my harddisk crashed. We replaced the harddisk (for a better and bigger one) and loaded CentOS on it.. we took over every little configging we could from the other (failed) harddisk as all the data was thankfully in tact.

Now however, i see 2 threads of vbseo.php taking up close to 100% of cpu.

All the settings are exactly the same.. what happened?

Ok well i killed the 2 processes and the load is back down to 0 again and its working fine..
I suppose those two processes where just messing about or something

It's not uncommon for threads to hang from time to time and spike. killing the processes or restarting apache usually clears it right up.

If possible, i would suggest setting up your server to restart services at X load.

I have my apache set to graceful restart at 50 load
