Hi

What is the sysmon kernel thread, and why does it eats 3% of system time on 
my idle file server?

USER   PID %CPU %MEM  VSZ   RSS TTY    STAT STARTED      TIME COMMAND
root     2  6.0  0.7    0 22996 ?      DK    6:09PM 105:54.88 [sysmon]

It's such a CPU hog that intractive shell usage is a pain...
