Hi!! We are facing issue of 100% CPU usage during evening time everyday. During this, no response from typesense. How to resolve this issue? If you need any log information, please let me know how to retrieve this log for your analysis.

Typesense cloud or self hosting?

Can you please clarify whether typesense will reindex data at any interval even though no change in documents?

No, it doesn't. Unfortunately for self hosted cluster, there is not much easy troubleshooting we can do. You will have to figure out if some cron is running or some other crawler / external process is hitting the app. You can enable access logging and check that for IPs.

How to enable access logging?

We are seeing client ip coming as 0.0.0.0. in fact our typesense service is behind load balancer. In this case,, any configuration needs to be done?

If it's behind LB, then the LB might not be passing the IP along. I don't think we log forwarded IPs even if LBs send them.
