About 6 minutes after booting (on three occasions, but I don't guarantee this doesn't vary), a process (well, a kernel interrupt thread, I guess) that appears in the output of "ps" as "[swi4: clock sio]" begins to use about 3/4 of the machine's CPU.
I recall seeing similar behavior on a Sun V20z, running 5.x at the time. I have definitely seen a lot of interrupts and CPU usage on the sio interrupt corresponding to serial console. Needless to say there was no activity on the console itself. I think turning off serial console solved that for me. -- Deomid Ryabkov aka Rojer [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 8025844
