 Hello,
 
 What exactly do you want to show/tell us with this? Yes the  idle times
 are unbalanced, some CPU's can be more busy then others, and thus have
 less IDLE time recorded and less CPU spending on being idle (sounds
 contradictive :-)), but I do not see that as a problem, remember that
 there are unthreaded applications that just work on a single CPU , which
 might have been CPU3....
 
 Thanks,
 remko
