It doesn't help if I expand / show individual threads. I believe this is related to multithreaded processes only. I saw this for intr kernel process. Singlethread processes eat CPU slightly less than on 7.2, however, I can not say is it statistic errors or real speedup. I saw the issue on SMP/ULE only and can not say anything about UP and 4BSD scheduler. -- Igor Sysoev http://sysoev.ru/en/
