[cups.general] Re: FW: cupsd process question

[Minatra, Pat H.]

Thank you Angel, with your help it appears we have resolved the problem.


I only got one hit on cpu (I never thought of using that specific term
to search with) and it directed me to a value called FilterLimit, which
ours was set at 0 (wide open).  I changed this value to 1000 and stopped
and restarted CUPS and have had no further problems with system issues.

I am not quite sure what specifically this addresses as I would like to
know more than I do but my users are very happy now with the increase in
response time from the server.

Thank you so much for your help.  Have a GREAT day!

Search for the word "cupsd" or "cpu" and you may just find the
answer you're looking for.

Or, upgrade to CUPS 1.2.

Good luck.

Angel
