Hi all, below is the output of my 'top'
Tasks: 91 total, 2 running, 89 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 3.9% us, 20.5% sy, 0.0% ni, 75.6% id, 0.0% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si
Can someone tell me what does us, sy,ni,id,wa,hi,si stands stand for?
us -> user processes
sy -> System processes
id -> ideal
For remaining stuffs, I am not sure..May some other poss wil help us both in learning it.
Regards,

I got it
us -> User
sy -> system
ni -> nice
id -> idle
wa -> iowait
hi -> H/w interrupt requests
si -> S/w interrupt requests
From my output
Cpu(s): 3.9% us, 20.5% sy, 0.0% ni, 75.6% id, 0.0% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si
Does it mean 75% of my CPU is idling,while user's process are taking 3.9% and system processing at taking up 20.5% of the CPU's resources?
Yes, that is what it means
