This is what I get if I set CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED to "y" top - 16:00:59 up 2 min, 1 user, load average: 2.56, 1.60, 0.65 Tasks: 84 total, 3 running, 81 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 49.7%us, 0.3%sy, 49.7%ni, 0.0%id, 0.0%wa, 0.3%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 1036180k total, 322876k used, 713304k free, 13164k buffers Swap: 997880k total, 0k used, 997880k free, 149208k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 6070 dnetc 39 19 664 348 264 R 49.7 0.0 1:09.71 dnetc 6676 tfoerste 20 0 1796 488 428 R 49.3 0.0 0:02.72 factor Stopping dnetc gives: top - 16:02:36 up 4 min, 1 user, load average: 2.50, 1.87, 0.83 Tasks: 89 total, 3 running, 86 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 99.3%us, 0.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 0.0%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 1036180k total, 378760k used, 657420k free, 14736k buffers Swap: 997880k total, 0k used, 997880k free, 180868k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 6766 tfoerste 20 0 1796 488 428 R 84.9 0.0 0:05.41 factor > If I am not mistaken, cpu ondemand gov goes by the cpu idle time stats, > which should not be affected by FAIR_GROUP_SCHED. I will lookaround for > other possible causes. As I stated our in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/26/207 the issue is solved after unselecting FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.
