Question

Accepted Answer

To identify the process causing server slowness, use monitoring tools and analyze system logs.

Use monitoring tools like Nagios, Zabbix, or Prometheus to track system performance metrics.
Analyze system logs to identify any errors or warnings related to specific processes.
Check CPU and memory usage of running processes using tools like top or htop.
Use profiling tools like strace or perf to identify resource-intensive processes.
Consider network traffic and disk I/O as potential causes of server slowness.
Perform load testing to simulate high traffic and identify bottlenecks in the system.
Collaborate with developers to identify any code issues or inefficient algorithms.
Prioritize fixing the most resource-intensive processes to improve overall system performance.
