The load average varies from 0.00 to 0.10, and system monitor shows the CPU percentage from 3-10%. No noticeable threads are showing up for more than a brief second with system monitor. running 2.6.11-1.1253_FC4, gnome, on Sony PCG-Z1RA. Did anything change with the idle loop, or throttling that could cause this? Any ways to see more clearly which threads were recently on the CPU, rather than at a snapshot in time? </BODY> </HTML>
