It's consistently 6 and 7% of an IFL on 1 http server.  On it's twin on
the other LPAR, it's consistently about 1.5%.  So, is there that much
"leftover" because of the httpd processes?  We were wondering about the
differences - and also why the velocity numbers don't add up - is that a
bug?:

Here's the "twin"

It's not really the init process itself consuming CPU. The numbers
reported are for the children of init. Normally when a process
terminates, the consumed resources get accumulated into the parent of
the process. When the parent terminates before the child, init becomes
the parent of the process and accumulates the resource data.
Basically what you see reported against init is the left-over of the
last minute. The resource usage of this child process in the previous
minutes was reported for the process itself. You might see this happen
for example when you stop some daemon process (part of the startup of
those services detaches it from the process that started it). So it is
just normal.
