It's the processes' scheduling priorities (among other factors) that count. In general there's nothing wrong with a process using all CPU time if no other process needs it at the moment. It only gets problematic if this process prevents other, "more important" processes from getting cycles when they need them. But this can have several other reasons. -- Regards, Sascha Wildner erpicon Software Development GmbH Neusser Str. 724-726 50737 Köln Germany Phone: +49 221 9746069 Fax: +49 221 9746099 eMail: swildner@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
