Hi there. I finished a BLFS build about three weeks ago, and am now
using it as my main system. I am quite worried about one thing. Almost
every time I go on the internet (dialup) the system seems to slow down
or lag in performance. I have recently been using ps -A to look at the
processes in use while I'm online. Here's an excerpt:

 6849 ?        00:00:00 su
 6850 ?        00:00:00 sort
 6851 ?        00:00:00 frcode
 6852 ?        00:00:03 find
 6869 ?        00:00:00 cleanup
 6870 ?        00:00:00 trivial-rewrite
 6871 ?        00:00:00 pipe
 6873 ?        00:00:00 bounce
 6874 ?        00:00:00 flush
 6875 ?        00:00:00 flush
 6878 pts/37   00:00:00 ps


Is this a system breach, or perhaps a root-kit. I am very much a
beginner to system security, so perhaps I'm jumping to all sorts of
conclusions. Anyone got any ideas? 

Thanks in advance

Donal
