Hello gurus,
I am running an SMP box but the output of 'top' seems to confuse me.

=46rom the output below, is my processor any idle, and if so, what is the
%age??
##

81 process202921 running, 78 slee 0.06,  0.15,  0.25  up 1+01:34:2412:29:26
78U states:    1% user,  5% nice,  2% system,   % interrupt,     %idle
Mem: 85M Act 1.1 9728K I 0.0, 22M Wi 3.7 5664K Cac 0.922M Buf, 488K F94.3e
Swap: 350M Total,7996K Inact, 22M Wired, 8296K Cache, 22M Buf, 544K Free

At no point have I seen any numeral near the %idle, while I believe it
should be over 80%

Some men are alive simply because it is against the law to kill them.
