Message-ID: City: Thornhill Province: Ontario Country: Canada Telephone: (905) 763-1900 Fax: (905) 763-0241 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have a problem for which, I cannot find the answer in man pages or in a few books I have here. Would anyone know how to find out what might be the cause of interrupt going up to as high as 26%? I had just rebooted my pc after changing the kernel (thinking that maybe a few entries with nic cards etc. might cause interrupts) and when I looked at top after an hour or so all was fine. When I looked again about 2 hours later, the interrupt is back up there. last pid: 1391; load averages: 0.00, 0.03, 0.05 up 0+02:41:10 00:24:35 63 processes: 1 running, 62 sleeping CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.0% system, 23.3% interrupt, 76.7% idle Mem: 36M Active, 2716K Inact, 14M Wired, 4804K Cache, 7543K Buf, 4168K Free Swap: 300M Total, 1848K Used, 298M Free, 1% Inuse PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 405 t00thie 2 0 5000K 4592K select 0:16 0.00% 0.00% eggdrop-1.3. 822 root 2 0 3336K 2628K select 0:07 0.00% 0.00% smbd 403 mcse 2 0 2848K 2368K select 0:03 0.00% 0.00% eggdrop-1.3. 1315 root 2 0 1288K 952K select 0:02 0.00% 0.00% sshd1 824 root 2 0 1288K 944K select 0:02 0.00% 0.00% sshd1 398 smb 2 0 2736K 2220K select 0:01 0.00% 0.00% eggdrop-1.3. 118 root 2 -12 1044K 680K select 0:01 0.00% 0.00% xntpd 1300 lnb 2 0 2308K 1704K select 0:01 0.00% 0.00% BitchX-75p3 320 root 2 0 1436K 840K select 0:01 0.00% 0.00% nmbd 893 root 2 0 1816K 1484K select 0:00 0.00% 0.00% named 262 root 2 0 1936K 1272K select 0:00 0.00% 0.00% httpd 352 nobody 2 0 2060K 1 Thanks for your help :-) Regards, Lanny To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
