Actually I had never seen that before. :) I added this setting immediately and it definitely cut the CPU usage down, but the load average went way up. No doubt that's because a lot of processes that don't live long enough for load average accounting for no longer exist. I'm a lot more interested in CPU usage than load average, so it's a big win for me. :) Thanks!
