Thank you, Bob.
Finally I found the root cause is that pollsys is called too frequently.
and this problem seems quite normal in Solaris family.
I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with power management (as
other have suggested).
The poll() call can wait for activities on file descriptors but can
also be used for time-out such as for periodic event loops. Some
software is written poorly and executes periodic event loops quite
often.
If you don't have source for the program, it might be possible to
"fix" it by using the LD_PRELOAD enviroment variable and a tiny shared
library which replaces poll() with one which insists on longer
timeouts. This might cause other problems to occur in the software
though.
