Subjecttop misinforming with threads in the mix
Hi,

I wrote a process that spawns a thread and then the thread just goes to
town using CPU (on purpose) while the main process waits on it.


On linux-2.6.3 and top 3.1.15 top shows that the machine is 0% idle, but
it does not show any processes taking any significant CPU time.

However, things show fine on linux-2.6.11 with top 3.2.5

Does anyone know if this was a top deficiency or something the kernel
wasn't reporting correctly?

Thanks,
Davy
