I've been poking around with 'top' and have gotten curious about 'WCPU' versus 'CPU'. Specifically, I am curious about the difference between them. I read the manpage and saw the 'WCPU' is derived the same way ps derives 'CPU' stat. I then looked up the CPU stat in ps' manpage and didn't understand any of it! Would someone capable be willing to give a lay-person's explanation of these two different stats? It would be greatly appreciated!
