[Sks-devel] sks.daylightpirates.org is staying

I'm staying, but I need some help.

My server (sks.daylightpirates.org) currently has an uptime of
97.95%, but every few hours the "sks db" process spikes to 100%
CPU which makes the web interface completely unresponsive, which
I'm guessing is why I keep getting kicked out of the pool.

In the db.log, for each of these events, there's the following
logs:
================
2018-07-19 18:04:30 add_keys_merge failed: Eventloop.SigAlarm
2018-07-19 18:04:38 Key addition failed: Eventloop.SigAlarm
================

After "Key addition failed", my server becomes responsive again.
I'm not having storage problems (/var/lib/sks is only 15GB,
probably due to DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE being set), but the CPU spikes
are really annoying since it kicks me out of the pool.

Is there anything I can do to prevent these CPU spikes or
offload them to another process so the web interface stays up?


Thanks!
