We have a reproducible kernel trace on t1.micro instances when chef-client is started. Many defunct chef-client processes are left on the box and the load climbs and remains high (even for a constrained instance like a t1.micro).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start t1.micro instance on EC2 using ami-db595faf
2. Install omnibus chef package
3. service chef-client start
This has occurred and confirmed with 3.2.0-29-virtual and 3.2.0-31-virtual from precise-proposed. We have seen a trace with 3.2.0-30-virtual, but I haven't verified that trace is the same issue (although it is likely).
We are running Opscode chef on our infrastructure, which is 12.04.1 LTS on AWS EC2, using t1.micro, m1.small, m1.large and larger instances.
These instances are built using ami-db595faf (m1.micros) and ami-f3595f87 (all other sizes), referenced at http:// cloud-images. ubuntu. com/releases/ precise/ release- 20120822/
