Description:
I have a linux cPanel server on CentOS 7 which works fine. It often becomes flooded with hits to Apache which slow it down heavily. At least I think this is the reason. I want to know exactly what I have to do to figure out where these load spikes come from and if from Apache which source IP address. for example I might have a load value of "172.95 121.56 59.42" which is very very high, yet when I check the top processes I see nothing that is doing this: 5.4% is the highest CPU process?
