I've tried this, but it has no effect on the servers' CPU usage while idle. I also have much increased CPU usage shown; however, the load average does not appear to have changed. Since in my experience servers on a box used to degrade in performance well before CPU graphs would indicate an issue, it's _possible_ that this change won't materially affect the capacity of a box, but that's just speculation. > On 6/25/2011 5:43 PM, J M wrote: > > I'm guessing this has to do with the new thing it does on server > startup > > where it tries to figure out what clock speed the CPU is running at. > Start > > up the server and read what it says in console.
