Alpha 4100A ver 4.0B 2X 533 CPUs
Hi All ,
I have just gotten a second CPU for my 4100 .
I run a few sybase Dataservers on it .
"Top" always shows one of the dataservers running at 99% CPU .
"monitor" always shows it running at 99 % on one CPU or
eg: 41 % on one and 59% on the other (see below)
I was under the understanding that sybase was a multithreaded
program . Shouldn't it be capable of utilizing 100% of both
CPUs if needed . ? I know it will try and run on the last CPU
it used , so when it shows it split up over the two CPUs is
that just lag in the display . ? If it is running on both CPUs
why the 100% or (50% of total) limit . ?
