[Shreyu]

Hi ,

I am using below cfengine configuration on our production system

cfengine-community 3.6.2-1  on both server & client side

CFEngine desing-center ( cf-sketch version 3.6.0.) 

On single cfengine server and it's 102 clients running .

We are generating configuration using design-center DCAPIs for 103 host and it's related sketches. it is generating 2.6M cf-sketch-runfile.cf file. 

but some how when cf-agent run on client side it occpying high cpu utilization upto 99.5%, any idea why it is taking high cpu utilization ?

Settings : 

controls/cf_execd.cf

schedule => { "Min00","Min15","Min30","Min45" };

splaytime  => "5";

CPU Specification on client/server : 

Architecture:          x86_64
