• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Hello there,
I've a very high Load Average ( 12 on a 4 CPU - 8GB Ram VPS ) and a low RAM/CPU use, also iotop looks ok.
How to determine the reason of the high load?
 
ps aux | sort -nrk 3,3 | head -n 20
will show you the top 20 processes by cpu load. This will probably reveal the user account or website that is the culprit.
 
If these are the top 20 processes, your server is practically idle.

I've a very high Load Average ( 12 on a 4 CPU - 8GB Ram VPS )
Please provide evidence where you see the load average.
