Please this is about my dedicated server that contain all my websites
hello,
3 days ago i got an alert my websites are not working due to crazy php-cgi consumption, so i use pinguzo (under webuzo) to check. the problem is i don't know how to detect the actually files going this madness but php-cgi takes 440% as against 100%. please what will i do.
i don't know if i am under attack because i once gave someone my details that result to this but all i want is to remove this.
i have run **killall php-cgi** but it keeps restarting again about few minutes and hang my server. and i need to inform my host to shut down apache, so i can login and try again. please, all my website are down and this is not good for me and my business.
as for my host, they will not do much because i am on self-managed, i didn't buy it intentionally but because of her promo and her space but it is good to always learn something new
please help me

What are you running on the server, aside from SMF?
what version of SMF?
What mods?
Check apache's full status, it ought to show you which requests are being made and processed.
And yes of course PHP processes will relaunch... That's expected behaviour.
"i don't know if i am under attack because i once gave someone my details that result to this"
What...? So tell them to undo what they did?
Poor coding can result in insane CPU usage, but so can fun stuff like spam scripts.
And of course simply a high visitor count can. (Bot or normal user.)
"please, all my website are down and this is not good for me and my business."
If it's business and you're in a big hurry to get it sorted: pay someone to fix it. It's that simple.

Please can you help me look into it?
I'm trying, did you look at the first suggestion I made as starting point?
Basics are to determine what it's doing and/or where it's coming from.
Also the info Kindred requested can be important.
