Perhaps you misunderstand what the load average numbers are telling you. The load is the average length of the run queue (i.e. a load of 2 means that two processes asking for CPU time). It doesn't imply that your CPU is heavily loaded. Run top and see how many processes are "Running", or are blocked on I/O, or something. (I'm not sure why you are worrying about this at all.) -- ams _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
