It was aprox 6.0, but should have been 2.0 (or at absolute maximum 3.0), as there were not so many running processes. There was the g++ at nice 0, some process running at nice 19 and tvtime at nice 0. All other processes were not taking much CPU and sleeping most of the time. (X and KDE was running, but I don't think they can cause this load.) - -- Regards Michael Buesch [ http://www.tuxsoft.de.vu ] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA3FbzFGK1OIvVOP4RAlgbAJ9eOW2vI/8vv6ZGPDWe6ZmGMW2Y2QCfVN64 DuRJpB+G9FSrenG/rlWA8zo= =YH0g -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
