I've had this problem since 2.1x, and it appaears to still happen
occasionally in 2.2-ALPHA:
mark:{105}/home/mark % w
8:14AM up 46 mins, 3 users, load averages: 0.99, 0.97, 0.88
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT
mark p1 :0.0 7:28AM 45 -tcsh (tcsh)
mark p2 :0.0 7:28AM - w
mark p3 :0.0 7:32AM 37 ppp
the ppp process causes the high load (which isn't real, BTW). Top shows it
as not doing a thing. As soon as I kill ppp off, the load drops right back
down.
A friend of mine gets the exact same thing regularily in 2.1.5, and
although it rarely happens to me these days, it happens enough to make me
curious about what's going on here :-)
