Workflow Service host consuming high CPU on server.

Question

Workflow Service host consuming high CPU on server.

Tried restarting WFFarm and SBFarm with no luck.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

is it running on the SharePoint server? if yes what other SharePoint service is configured on that server?

Or is it on dedicated server?

Answer 2

Hi Amol, there were a lot of performance improvements on the WFM with the Cumulative Update 3. Do you have that update installed, if not I strongly recommend that you do that and then check the performance.

 Cumulative Update 3 for Workflow Manager 1.0 (KB3104066)

Must have the Cumulative Update for Service Bus 1.0 (KB2799752) installed on the entire computer farm before installing this update for Workflow Manager 1.0

This update can be applied to machines that have Workflow Manager 1.0 installed.

If the machine has Workflow Manger 1.0 installed, only Workflow Manager will be updated.

To update the Workflow Manager Client 1.0, you have to install Workflow Manager Client 1.0 CU3. Workflow Manager Client 1.0 CU3 and Workflow Manager Tools 1.0 CU3 are

MSIs that can be installed on a fresh computer or in addition to Workflow Manager Client 1.0 or Workflow Manager Tools 1.0 respectively

Also, check my blog post that shows you how you can check if you have the latest CU3

Hope that helps
