A slightly similar observation, which I assume is normal as the boxes work fine, is both my P4 2.4GHz Linux asterisks spike up to 100% load, about every 30 seconds, with no calls being handled.
You don't mention it, but it sounds like you are running either Fedora core or Red Hat. There are known problems regarding the threading in those distos. The is a known work around too.
No, I have avoided the later RedHat distros for that reason. It is a stripped down RH 7.3 and updates with a custom compiled bare bones 2.4.21 kernel, (from memory - I'll be updating once .27 is out). As far as I know, threading is pretty standard there.
If you haven't done so, take a moment to read or listen about quantum mechanics. The problems with wuantum mechanics is similar to what you describe. The tool you are using to make measurements affects what you are measuring. Something to think about. Top is a very crude way of measuring system load. It is nice and useful, but remember it's short comings.
True, but it is out of character with what I see on similar boxes not running asterisk. What would one use to measure this less obtrusively?
