Public bug reported:
My machine was responding sluggishly. Top showed PID 1 consuming almost
70% CPU. The culprit seems to be the startpar-bridge job which had 2
running instances:
$ sudo initctl list|grep startpar
startpar-bridge (get_started--started) start/running, process 9024
startpar-bridge (get_started--stopped) start/running, process 9035
The fix was to:
1) Stop the job from restarting:
echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/startpar-bridge.override
2) Stop the 2 running instances.
CPU usage then returned to normal levels.
strace confirmed that upstart was constantly processing startpar-bridge
requests.
