i noticed this bug in kde3.5 (on gentoo, suse 9.2 and suse 10.0). i didn't have it in previous versions of kde (on the same systems). This is probably a duplicated of 83143: I'm pretty sure this is ktimemon. I've made a patch (vs svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/tags/KDE/3.5.2/kdeaddons) available at http://blakeley.com/ktimemon-mblakele-2006-04-08.diff.bz2 |
Version: 3.4.2 (using KDE 3.4.2 Level "b" , SUSE 10.0) Compiler: Target: x86_64-suse-linux OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.13-15.7-default This is for the panel "system monitor" which can be added with panel menu->add to panel->applet->system monitor, which seems to be something different than ksim. The time which the CPU stays in I/O-wait ("wa" in top) is counted into the CPU busy time, user process - blue part of left bar. This is highly misleading when the CPU spends 2% in sys, 3% in user space, and >80% in I/O wait, that is doing nothing much at all but waiting for the disk. The blue bar goes all the way to the top, indicating a total CPU utilisation of 100%. This is not useful.
