Hello Linux ppl,

know ....

In the readprofile man page load=(# of clk ticks) / (length of the procedure)

What does "length of procedure" means. Does that mean the # of ASM lines of
the procedure code? What is the units of the load. It cannot be %. because
-----------------------------------------------------------
152495 default_idle 3176.9792
-----------------------------------------------------------
the above line indicates, more than 100% of times CPU is idle. This cannot
happen.

What value of the procedure load is considered to be a potential CPU
intensive procedure/ high load procedure.

Say for example, if the load value is 20, then is that procedure considered to
be a high load procedure.

Thanking You
Shesha
