Has anyone noticed wierd behavior with reported cpu usage by top. On my RedHat 9 system dual AthlonMP 2000, each server spikes up 50, 80 or 100 and with players in it uses around 20% avg and goes up to 80-100, yet the %idle never seems to drop below 70%. Also vmstat reports little cpu usage in the user space.
