portsdb -U ends up running a lot of very short-lived processes which don't exist long enough to accumulate enough CPU to show up in top. Watch the "last pid" number and you should see it increment between 100 and 500 per second. If you have process accounting enabled you can run "lastcomm" to see the commands themselves. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
