sc_trans & Centova v2 running the same server and it's the same way and has been for ever -- icescc always runs a higher load

Well at least in this screenshot, sc_trans1 is showing a reasonable CPU utilization of 4.2-4.8%, which is at least in a range I'd consider reasonable even if it *is* lower than ices. (And FTR, even if sc_trans v1 CPU usage is lower than ices-cc, it's still a no-brainer -- sc_trans v1 is the buggiest, crashiest, memory-leakiest piece of unfortunate code... ugh. )

I just don't understand how you're getting away with 0.8-1.2% CPU utilization in sc_trans2... especially when, on the exact same make and model of CPU, I'm getting totally different results.  Doesn't make sense.

Well in total I have 2 servers that run both Centova 2 and "the other one" -- the earlier screenshot was a dedicated, this one is a vps through vps.net, Centos5X, cpanel -- just like the dedicated, which is through http://www.midphase.com/ (highly recommended)

I have now setup my new VPS, & re-installed CentovaCast 3.0 & with the following streams running;

Shoutcast v1
Shoutcast v2
Ices-cc
Icecast v2

It appears some of my problems i had on my previous VPS are no longer present on my new VPS & i wanted to check that i had no more load issues;

But in the last few days i have been getting an email generated by my  server (Load related);

Code: [Select]

[statscheck] Stats/Server Overload on server2

IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email.
  This is cPanel stats runner on server2.xxxxxxxxxxx.co.uk!
  While processing the log files for user shoutcas, the cpu has been
maxed out for more than a 6 hour period.  The current load/uptime line on the server at the time of
this email is
  15:13:13 up 3 days, 23:37,  0 users,  load average: 6.14, 6.50, 6.67
  You should check the server to see why the load is so high and take
steps to lower the load.  If you want stats to continue to run even with a high load; Edit
/var/cpanel/cpanel.config and change extracpus to a number larger then 0 (run
/usr/local/cpanel/startup afterwards to pickup the changes).

 
Anyone any thoughts on this at all
