I am puzzled why gkrellm does not always report 100% usage when I'm running tasks that --- I assume --- always have at least one process in the runnable state. I've never seen gkrellm pegged at 100%, even when I run 3 or more emerges (with MAKEOPTS="-j2") at the same time. (I have a single core Turion 64 processor.)
What happens is that gkrellm bounces between 99% and 100%. Does the processor really go idle several times a second? Or is this an artifact of, say, the way I/O processing is reported? --- Vladimir -- Vladimir G. Ivanovic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
