CPU utilization

[Mohan Viswanathan]

Hi Team,

This mail is regarding the CPU utilization of the Ansible

 

I have a Centos (version 8) Machine where Ansible is installed ( 4CPU and 16GB RAM) Executing 2 to 3 parallel calls takes up to 100% CPU

Help us to know if any optimization can be done here
