Update and hopefully some new insight from you fine folks. I got a little overzealous today and tried launching ~100 searches of the single book item. The server became basically nonfunctional. I DOS attacked myself…
The server load jumped into the high 40s. I noticed that the rebuild_zebra.pl kept popping up in the top output. Should this be running actively during searches? I thought it was just supposed to be run through cron jobs. The default cron jobs were setup by the installation and I verified they do exist. The opac-search.pl is just killing the server, any ideas of what to look for would be greatly appreciated. Anyone else out there running on esxi, if so any issues?

Pressing the numeral 1 will toggle multiple CPU lines in top. To display the CPU a program is running on first press 'f' then 'J' to add the CPU in use column (P) to top's display. What is your load average? Does 'uname -a' show that you're running the SMP version of Debian? Randy Rowe Lincoln City Libraries I.T.
