[8.900][BUG] Webproxy takes 99% to 180% CPU

Hi there,

what informations can i provide to identify what is the problem with the webproxy?

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S   %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                                                                                                                             
30854 httpprox  20   0  596m 247m 7572 R     99  6.3   0:13.40 httpproxy      

i don't see something strange in the logs, but that won't mean something [:)]

  • On my test system I found out that the 100% cpu load is related to the SSL scanning enabled. But I seems to depend on the browser type.

    When I use Firefox as browser there is no issue. But when I use IE8/IE9 the load increases to 100%. But not all HTTPS sites trigger that issue. It seems to depend on the SSL certificate sometimes.

    Could somebody perhaps verify if you can open/download the eicar testfiles using https? When I try it the cpu load of the httpproxy goes to 100% and the site hangs.

    regards,
    chris
