Some edited highlights of this: 0.2%Sys 75.8%Intr 0.0%User 0.0%Nice 24.0%Idl | | | | | | | | | | ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So, the processor at 75% odd. cow 280 total wire stray irq7 act ata0 irq14 inact ata1 irq15 cache 1 xl0 irq9 free 51 xl1 irq10 daefr sio0 irq4 prcfr 100 clk irq0 react 128 rtc irq8 Here are your two real time clocks, plus 51 interrupts from xl1. Given that I'm administering the machine from an SSL connection on xl1 I guess that's not surprising. Load 0.08 0.04 0.01 And userland not doing very much. In other words no real idea? > Dan Nelson Thanks, Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
