HCL Domino, view indexer stuck with very high CPU usage


I have a customer who has a Domino server running with very high CPU usage, and it should not, since it is not a very busy server.


It is the indexer which gets stuck with very high CPU usage




I have a support case with HCL.

It seems that it is the dynamic view indexing added to the recent releases of Domino which is the reason behind this.

This feature polls the database for data for getting information on which views are frequently updated.

Disabling the feature brings back the CPU usage to normal again.

You can do this by setting NIF_VIEW_USAGE_ENABLED=0 in notes.ini, if you have enabled the feature
