Top 10 common "performance bottlenecks" (figure) (1)

When you hear the term "performance bottleneck", the main words that come into your mind are the central processor, memory, hard disk, and network. These are the main aspects to explore performance bottlenecks, but they are not the only aspect of performance problems. This article focuses on six other potential causes and explores the unpredictable performance bottleneck.

Note that the rankings listed in this article are in no particular order.

1. central processor

A central processor is the brain of a computer, where computing and instructions are run.

The central processor can process millions of computing and commands, but when the number of computing operations exceeds the capacity of the central processor, it will cause performance problems. When the number of computing loads on the central processor exceeds 75%, the entire system will be slow. When the system load reaches 100% in a short period of time, the central processor needs some space to cope with explosive peaks. The central processor load is the main cause of performance bottlenecks.
