Hello
I noticed that the reaper process (which I do not know what is it looks
like a system process) is using a lot of CPU.
I Am actually building STABLE from sources and reaper is using 7% of CPU
while the other active processes like cc1 etc are using less
CPU. sometimes the cpu usage of reaper bursts to 90% then decreses
fastly. Is all this normal? I notices my load averages are quite high even
if I Am not using the system and there is no process using the CPU.
thanks

Rick
