GSA Keeps stopping? Need to manually stop/start project to get it to post again
This has been happening now for weeks...
Before I go to bed at night I duplicate some projects and import huge lists to them (either from sitelist or from textfile). At first, GSA blasts through them like a hot knife through butter.
But EVERY few hours, for some reason the threads go waaay down, cpu usage is only 2% and it's like GSA is doing nothing. When I check show urls-> remaining often there are still 100k urls left. All I need to do is stop/start project and it starts blasting fast @ max threads and 90%+ cpu....
Does anyone else have this? Am I missing something?

@ SVen, i check the logs and its not parsing emails. It just slows down after a while and maybe there is a new log entry every 30 sec or so. Threads and cpu go down to 1-2.
Only way to get it to go fast is restart project
Guys, just a heads up, but SER is cranking faster than I have ever seen it. I wish I took some screenshots yesterday (I built over 400,000 links), but here's a quick screen shot from running at the 14 hour mark:
I have verification disabled in a lot (majority) of projects so that number is artificially low. Running v8.38. SER is running faster than I have ever seen it in 2 years. Seriously, it has to be the VPS or settings. Probably the VPS.
I have been duped by the specs on VPS's. You know, 4 cores, 3.6Ghz, blah blah blah. But then it doesn't perform. And then you keep thinking it is SER or whatever. I would say the first rule is to always get a Xeon processor. But after that, I would treat yourself to a month run on a dedi. And just compare notes. Personally, I am getting tired of VPS's because of the poor performance.
I will say, however, that I have the EXACT same thing happening to me: I start my projects, and boom, everything's fine. Then it just dies in a couple of hours. When I stop it and start it again, boom, everything's working like magic again.
lets say we have dedi and trying to run 400 threads
if its 1 project all threads goes to 1 project it start with 0 and goes to 400..than gsa use another chunk of linklist and do from 0 to 400.
now if there are 10 projects with same priority gsa divide threads by ten and do same as above but LPM sticks to same in second issue is because more porjects more WORKING threads
