2. On the other hand, blinds don't have eyes and they are not bats.
3. Your eyes could have blinds and they sometimes bat.=>I shouldn't try to be profound before I've had my morning coffee.
Society is to blame.
In the dictionary, "bat" is on the same page as "basset hound"!!! Coincidence? I don't think so.

I dont want to start a seperate thread for this . But do you know what does 86% processor usage actually mean?
Why I ask this is because processor is running all the time so what does 86% say mean?
Is it the net resource supported by processor like RAM, DMA, FPU etc running or is it the actual processor usage? Any idea

bizare question...
If it's the Windows taskmanager that says 86% processor usage, then it's the CPU that's 86% busy. What it is doing can't be known from the taskmanager. The CPU can be doing integer arithmetic, float calculations or whatever. It's just 86% busy.
Hi Marc,
I dont think you read this line in my post

I hope you agree on that
I believe that a computer processor is always busy executing some code or the other, if not anything else Idle process running so what does 86% say usage actaully mean?

No, there are processors that shutdown part of the CPU if these are not required. I'm not sure if the latest Intel CPU have this feature, but it was certainly announced by Intel.

There is an "Idle process" but it doesn't really do anything. It doesn't use the FPU, ALU, whatever of your CPU.
So if it says 86%, then the CPU is performing 86% real work and in the remaining 14% it can be in a halt state.
How come there are no posts today??
noone is having any problem
