Hi,
I noticed that sometimes when performing a graceful restart of httpd, the CPU of the httpd process spikes and does not come down. This happens more frequently if the web server is under load but can happen even when not serving traffic. Has anyone else encountered this problem? And what can I do to resolve this?
I did not notice any error messages in the error log and only see the following:
