If I run three computationally intensive programs, one program runs at 99% CPU usage, and the other two run at 50% CPU usage (this is according to top). It used to be that each of the three programs ran at 66% CPU. I liked it better the old way. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Stephen Montgomery-Smith stephen@math.missouri.edu http://www.math.missouri.edu/~stephen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
