I was looking at my cpu usage graph today and it seemed like it was high. It is hovering at 5% to 9% but when I look at top the idle cpu% is from 99.3 to 99.9 so I dont think I am using very much. Anyone have ideas at to why there is such a big difference from top to the linode graph?



Thanks

This is an artifact from running a pv_ops kernel (kernels that run on Xen that are > 2.6.18). The pv_ops stuff is still "in testing", but once we make those mainstream we'll bug the devs about this.
