I am currently running a dual Pentium 4 Xeon 2.4 GHz system containing Red Hat
Linux 6.2 with the 2.4.20 kernel. The Pentium 4 Xeons report 4 cpu's to
/proc/cpuinfo because they are hyperthreaded.
My problem lies in trying to measure the CPU usage with such programs as top
or gtop. Typically, I see CPU loads in excess of 100% when I run top with
some of my signal processing applications, but not more than 200%. Is this
value out of 100%, 200%, or 400%? How does this dual, HT system kernel report
this info to the OS?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Matt
