Problem of comparing low number? Top's "getty 1.5% of the CPU" is not "getty eat 1.5% of the ALL CPU power", this is "getty 1.5% of off all other curerent eats of CPU power". T.e. if all system eat 985 ticks of CPU each second and getty eat 15 ticks of CPU each second -- top show 1.5% for getty. Load is raised to 99_985 ticks for system, getty eat 15 ticks -- top show 0% ( 15/(99985+15) = .015% ). _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
