Hi, this is top when X is NOT running:
9:24am up 40 min, 3 users, load average: 0.19, 0.13, 0.10 42 processes: 41 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 18.0% user, 6.0% system, 0.0% nice, 75.8% idle Mem: 255592K av, 86652K used, 168940K free, 0K shrd, 20224K buff Swap: 257000K av, 0K used, 257000K free 46692K cached PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 964 runarbel 17 0 1016 1016 832 R 7.3 0.3 0:01 top 855 runarbel 15 0 1388 1388 1080 S 0.7 0.5 0:02 bash 816 runarbel 15 0 2124 2124 1924 S 0.3 0.8 0:01 sshd 193 root 15 0 0 0 0 SW 0.1 0.0 0:00 kjournald The computer still acts like is is a Pentium 66MHz with a broken arm and a bad hip. Starting X takes exactly 4 minutes and 5 seconds (something which took around 30 seconds on my Celeron 300a as I remember). When X is running (and I have NO programs open), top looks like this: 9:33am up 49 min, 3 users, load average: 0.80, 1.18, 0.66 63 processes: 62 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 4.8% user, 9.5% system, 0.0% nice, 85.6% idle Mem: 255592K av, 175428K used, 80164K free, 0K shrd, 23792K buff Swap: 257000K av, 0K used, 257000K free 96448K cached PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 1042 runarbel 19 0 1028 1028 832 R 13.1 0.4 0:10 top 816 runarbel 15 0 2124 2124 1924 S 0.3 0.8 0:01 sshd 1029 runarbel 16 0 5920 5912 5004 S 0.3 2.3 0:05 magicdev The reason that there is 3 users is that I am logged on to the box as the user running X, and I have two SSH-terminals open. According to what I know of speed, my system has slightly worse speed than the average 486, and I haven't got the faintest idea why! :( I have sent MSI an e-mail to ask them if there is some known problem with their Motherboard combined with the Cyrix CPU's, but I've not got a reply yet. It sort of feels as if the system bus is running on 1MHz ... The CPU is correctly detected (as VIA C3 Ezra, 1007.408 MHz and 1998.84 bogomips) in /proc/cpuinfo So the system should according to this be much faster than my old Celeron 300a. But it isn't :( Appreciate all the comments I've got so far! :) regards, Runar On Wed, 26 Mar 2003, Nicholas Marsh wrote: > I would be curious to see your "top" output when the RHN update is done.
