High Apache CPU with mosquitto

[itdontgo]

This was a recurring problem when publishing to mosquitto.

Probably the socket closes during the read function and the fread no longer blocks the loop or something.

    while (!feof($this->socket) && $togo > 0) {
        $fread = fread($this->socket, $togo);
        $string .= $fread;
        $togo = $int - strlen($string);
    }

You need something like this:

$loops = 20;
    while (!feof($this->socket) && $togo > 0) {
		usleep(500);
        $fread = fread($this->socket, $togo);
		$loops--;
		if(!$loops){return $string;}
        $string .= $fread;
        $togo = $int - strlen($string);
    }
