[Asterisk-Users] question about CPU usage

[Bill Hamlin]

Nope same problem.  I just started it and did a couple of ps aux's and got
this output:


[root at redhat2 root]# ps aux|grep ast
root     20140 91.6  1.3 115880 6676 ?       R    15:43   1:10
asterisk -vvvvvgcd
root     20221  0.0  0.1  3572  628 pts/2    S    15:44   0:00 grep ast
