I assume then when you use ssh to login you have heavy use and when you log in on the machine it self you do not have this. Do you have a screen saver? Yes = read, no = skip and tell. Backgroud: I had something similar month back. Wen using top I couln'd which pid realy used them. When i sued to root it disapeerd and then came back 5min later. Someone pointed out that it might be my screen saver. (I had fire on it). Using a screen saver in a non-graphical enevorment means some (bios-)calls have to be made which are prity heavy. Sulution: Put the black screen save on. -- Best regards, Alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
