<snip> Greetings Karan: Nothing is wrong. System uptime is measured in seconds since the box was started. Processor idle time is measured per processor, so on a quad CPU box if the box is idle for 100 seconds, there are 400 seconds of idle processor time. Everything sounds normal. - -Scott -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGHiC1S7FYdPX6+iYRAuDnAJ9j7J+hSnPPUs3+d4KdzkOQzpjragCggq0J EJ5bwQhVp5+cQ7j9wxUFJXQ= =sEXT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
