## Symptoms

- * DAservice consumes high CPU (as seen when running the `top` command).
* When users restart the DAservice, issue is sometimes temporarily resolved, but reappears after a day or two.
* CPUSE is working properly and there are no issues in accessing the Check Point cloud to download CPUSE packages.
* CPUSE "automatic download" is enabled and user repository is "out of memory".

## Cause

"Automatic download" downloaded a lot of packages and caused an "out of memory" condition on the CPUSE repository.

"Check for update " fails in the middle, while downloading a new package, due to the memory issue.

It then attempts to delete this package every 3 hours, and to download it again. This consumes high CPU.
