      Hi,

      Since upgrade to Jenkins 2 (LTS 2.7.2, 2.7.3 and also with 2.22) there's a performance-issue at the Jenkins-master after about 2-4 days: The UI hangs (loading needs 5 or more minutes) and the Java-process needs about 50-99 percent CPU. It's necessary to kill the affected Java-process and to restart the Jenkins-service to re-establish our Jenkins (-farm).

      By "Debugging" the Java-process (with Visual Studio native remote-debugging) I have seen, that there are 1-2 *) WIN32-Threads with highest priority, which are running without noticeable yield/sleep (and occupy almost one core - of two).
      *) Sometimes there is only one of this running thread and the jenkins-master will response with respond with a delay of minutes; In other cases, there are two this (CPU-occupying) threads and jenkins is unusable ...

      Today, I was able to create a thread-dump (see attachment); at this time, the UI was "only" extremely slow has shown no running jobs, but the java-process has consumed 50-70% CPU.

      Best regards from Salzburg,
      Markus
