I made an assumption there: by 100% CPU you meant running a small number of additional CPU intensive process that pushed CPU utilization to 100%. If that is what you did then that is not enough. A real server can have hundred of threads all using CPU. A few of these would push CPU utilization to 100% but there are many more. Thus when the OS schedules any one thread it only gets a few % of the CPU and so it runs tens or hundreds of times slower than for a lightly loaded server. -- Philip Martin | Subversion Committer WANdisco // *Non-Stop Data*
