Christian, does our S390X machine get a guaranteed amount of CPU,
or does it depend on what else is running on the hardware?
I think its a shared system with shared CPUs. Can you check the steal
time in top or proc? If this is far too high we could ask to give you
more weight for that VM.
It's idle at the moment and steal time seems to be low (0.0 .. 0.3);
I'll try to remember to check next time it's running a job.
Do you have /proc/stat ?
Yes; hopefully it means more to you than it does to me :-)
linux1@qemu01:~$ cat /proc/stat

This is
user,nice,system,idle,iowait,irq,softirq,steal,guest,guest_nice
So overall there is some (20-30% since the last reboot) steal going on.
Not sure if this is the real problem since it is only Ubuntu 20.04.
Does a higher timeout make the problem go away?
