CPU and memory issues
Most high CPU and memory issues will require working with tech support to conclude the root cause through adequate code-level analysis. There are, however, actions you can take, including collecting useful information, both to speed up the investigation, but also to avoid having to wait for the issue to recur for that information to be captured.
Types of NetScaler CPU
