Agree. I never ever even seen popcon appearing in my ps aux, when cron triggers daily jobs. It is always things like mandb, locate, which take LOTS more CPU time and IO bandwidth. I never seen popcon in process list, which always brings to me question if it works at all :) Regards, Witek -- Witold Baryluk
