Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and trying to make Ubuntu
better.

Since you mentioned this behavior was fixed in version 3.0.2 the next
step is to identify the fix so we can cherry-pick it. We do not
introduce new upstream releases to a stable Ubuntu release.

With that in mind, I quickly checked for commit messages referring to
STARTTIME after the release of 2.2.0 (the version we have in Focal) but
I am not sure whether what I found is useful in this case. Maybe it is
if you did remount /proc in the buggy instance.

    Linux: add process->starttime and use it for STARTTIME column (#700)
    
    this way a remount of /proc will not reset starttimes
    and we can also see startup times for processes started before the mount
    of /proc
    
    also record btime (boot time in seconds since epoch) as Linux semi-global


I'd kindly ask you to check if you can find the fix in the upstream tree for 
this issue you are facing. If we have the commit(s) needed we will gladly fix 
it in Focal.

I was not able to reproduce your issue locally, htop is working very
well for me. Therefore, I am marking this bug as Incomplete because I
cannot verify it. However, in case you find the fix please add a comment
here with the proper links and mark it as New again, so the team can
revisit it.

** Changed in: htop (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
