    guys, I am debugging an application which sucks up more CPU than anything else. after truss the process couple of time, I found that within 1.1million entries in the truss output, over 900,000 of them are statx(...) followed by file not found error. has anyone seens this before, this many statx calls causing the unnecessary load?

    thanks

    but anyway, ask the app developers. they know better than this forum's readers.

Generally this happens when WAS guys install under root and then change the ownership to something else but forget to change the ownerships under /tmp/ and etc. The simplest way to solve this is by changing the ownership if the file exist or touching the file if doesn't exist where statx is failing.
