Godaddy's stock Turbopanel install is fucking up my servers

Thanks, GoDaddy! Your stock install of TurboPanel seems to suck balls. I have noticed on several different occasions the process "java" owned by root sits around and eats ast least 50% of my cpu. That's not very nice. (pun intended for the ultra-geeky)

How does one trace a pid to a cmdline? I taught myself this trick to figure out how.

  1. connect to your host (ssh, or god forbid telnet)
  2. use top to find the nasty process
  3. grab the pid
  4. use this nifty trick: (yes, you actually can do this)

    ~ cat /proc/pid/cmdline

Above, replace "pid" with the pid. This should get you the command that launched the process. Take that and use it to solve your problem.
