I didn't know that. My CPU has 4 cores too, but the vm only two.
I guess the database sockets increase this IO count and causes such
high cpu use.

What is the way to measure the "real" cpu use of the pharo-vm?

I wish idle was 0%, but 5% is totally acceptable given how stable it is.

Thank you Sven.
