A server hog is a user, program or system that places excessive load on a Server computing server such that the server performance as experienced by other client computing clients is degraded, or such that the server itself is so heavily loaded that it fails to perform routine housekeeping for its own maintenance. History The term server hog is colloquial rather than precisely delineated. The sensibility, if not the term itself, almost certainly dates back to the early years of time sharing computer systems in the 1960s when it was common for a single institutional mainframe computer mainframe to control many interactive terminals. In such an environment server lag is acutely perceived. Furthermore, in many operating environments, scarce server resources such as CPU seconds were often metered and charged against the account of the user running the program. An unintentional server hog could prove extremely costly in financial terms. These programs were often called run away programs or endless loops. Resource contention Server performance has many dimensions. Any subsystem that becomes excessively loaded can compromise the performance of other clients contending for that subsystem. Common forms of hardware contention include CPU cycles, interrupt latency, I O bandwidth, available system memory, or aggregate system memory bandwidth. At the software level, contention can arise for buffer ... on the server during those time periods. Unexpected hogs More often, the term server hog is used ... mainframe.
