High CPU load on Windows 7 | Log collection solutions

#1 lenard.daian 6 years ago

Hello!

I noticed strange cases nxlog.exe is loading 60%-90% CPU.
Log file has nothings about errors.
I have the same config file for win7 and winXP, but winXP is OK in contrast to win7.
Also if I use om_udp module instead om_tcp in config file for win7 high load is desappear.

Could anybody say me what is the problem, or how I can get more information about cause of problems.

You can either start it with LogLevel DEBUG or the other option is to send service control code 201 with sc.exe to put it into DEBUG mode when you see nxlog.exe doing that. The nxlog.log file will grow fast but it can help reveal what's going on.
