Hi,

I wonder how some variables are being determined in top.
For example CPU states:

CPU states: 0.4% user, 0.0% nice,  1.5% system, 0.4% interrupt, 97.7% idle

is the percentage of system the usage that system processes use from
the cpu? What about nice? Any nice link where i can rtfm about it?
Bye,

Mipam.
