The following reply was made to PR sparc64/119240; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Craig Butler <craig001@lerwick.hopto.org> To: bug-followup <bug-followup@freebsd.org> Cc: Subject: sparc64/119240 top has WCPU over 100% on UP system Date: Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:16:36 +0000 Hello I have also seen the same result on sparc64 and amd64 kit, I have looked into it a bit on google and the general feeling is that the WCPU (or weighted CPU) count is not all that accurate. A more accurate representation can be obtained by passing the -C flag when starting top. This is for raw CPU rather than a weighted average, on some quick tests on a V120 whilst running buildworld I have not seen a reading above 100%. Kind Regards Craig Butler
