I've put some output at
http://pflanze.mine.nu/~chris/scratch/Mon_Feb__2_014035_MET_2004
The most interesting part for you is probably:
ps auxw:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 5859 0.0 0.2 4856 1336 pts/11 S 01:54 0:00 /usr/loca
root 5900 46.5 9.9 197636 51204 tty8 S 01:54 1:00 /usr/loca
root 5901 0.0 9.9 197636 51204 ? S 01:54 0:00 /usr/loca
root 5902 0.0 9.9 197636 51204 ? S< 01:54 0:00 /usr/loca
root 5936 1.2 9.9 197636 51204 ? S< 01:54 0:01 /usr/loca
BTW note the much higher cpu score in ps output than in top!
I've also noticed that the more other stuff is running on the box, the
higher is the cpu score of mol. CPU cache saturation effects or something
more suspicious?
Christian.
