As I've noticed, on SMP build (though in single-CPU BOX)
value of kstat.cpu_system is incorrect - it always
increasing, so I've 100% CPU load always (and no idle ticks).
However, CPU is (in fact) not in use.
Problems exists since 2.4.0-test3, there were some changes
in code related to this calculation (although it is not clear
for me why).
Anyone has simple solution to this? :) (Please do not suggest
not to use SMP build :)).
Thanks!
