Fetcher helper usage

Hi,

we’ve migrated a check-mk instance from a virtual machine to a hardware box.

On it, 2 check-mk instances are running. (2.1.0p25)
One is ok, the other one is constantly complaining about the “Fetcher helper usage”, which is between 85% and 100%.

The CPU load and utilization is low.
The instance, which is ok, has 9 hosts and 330 services, the one with the problem has 350 hosts and 2000 services - just to give you an idea.

What could cause this helper issue and how to address it?

Thanks for reading,
Roland.

Easy fix would be to increase number of fetchers in global settings.
