====Hi,
After latest update, we bought support tickets to fix config and quarantine issues, (which also figures some minor errors with configs) , all was working good for some time , and then we got hit with a heavy load of antivirus (+some load of apache). We hit ~laod of 10.0 with 2 cores, which made us very slow.
My questions are :
1. Why this could have happened? (which parats of system should i review to find the cause)?
2. Can we lower the number of threads for antivirus ?
3. Can we make antivirus work faster , maybe do not use heuristics or smth ?
4. Any other suggestions are welcome
PS - as a temporary solution, i have increased number of CPU cores to 8 , so now even if we hit the same situation probably it will overcome it faster, but i would like to somehow understand why this could have happened ?
PPS- never before we had such big load on a server for years of work.
