I have never experienced this issue and I truly doubt that it has anything to do with the theme.

Swapping back to Virtualmin Framed Theme has pushed this value down to 3% CPU usage I have been monitoring it for the last few hours. This person here also has had a similar issue when running the theme -http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1530070

I understand. Every 5 minutes (300 sec), System Status,
scheduled_collect_system_info also happens in Webmin Configuration->Webmin Scheduled functions.
It's not a bug. I have found out on my server (64gb RAM, SSD, and 12x2 CPU Cores), that
index_cpu.cgigoes upto 4-5%. In case I switch to VM Framed Theme then it drops down to 0.4-0.5%. Well, it's true that Authentic Theme is more resourceful. When you reload index_cpu.cgi page it makes the whole theme load from the beginning and thus it uses a lot of CPU power. In case of not very powerful machine it will be 100%. In reality the load will not be there as long as you don't reload the page.
Thank you for reporting but it's not a bug. Theme does a lot of calculations and stuff upon load. I don't think I can help it. But overtime, that is for sure, I will try my best to do more and more optimizations, in case it's technically possible, to make theme shine in every possible way.

Hi,
Thanks for your in depth answer it's most helpful. In some cases when I was on Virtualmin and SSHing into the VPS the SSH would suffer (i.e take longer to connect) . Its a fantastic theme and I love the look it gives but does raise some concerns when it max outs the CPU. Its true in the case of my low power VPS the CPU takes a hit. - If you need any more info from me drop me a line but great work and keep it up! Probably just needs some tweaking :)

Thank you for your kind words and you are welcome.
I totally agree with you, that there is some room for code optimisation. Please understand, that making usable, optimised and great build (architect wise code) is a very very difficult task.
VPS is very specific. I remember, before having separate server, I couldn't even reload a page (http), when ffmpeg was running.
There should be a possibly on limiting CPU/RAM usage, this could be a solution.
Before I got a server of my own, I used to use ServInt - it was very good for me and I reccomend trying it.

Thanks for the recommend - Will take a look! Yeah I agree writing well optimized code is a daunting task. I come from a web development background and am constantly looking for ways to refactor it. Nothing on the same league as VM but still. Do you prefer dedicated over VPS then?

Yes, I do.
Dedicated will provide much much better experience. However, it's all based on your tasks.
