Hardware Reporting Broken in V5.001?

V5.0001
PII 400Mhz with 192MB RAM

All proxies, VPN, Virus detection, SPAM, IDS turned off.
about 10 packet filter rules.
NAT/IPMasq enabled.

The HW reporting page shows CPU usage consistently at about 8%.
I briefly enabled IDS the other day after installing the new License file and the CPU report then went DOWN to about 2%

I disabled it after a few hours and the report now shows 8% again.

However!

When I login to the box with SSH and run top, uptime etc I see the Load Avg  at around 5 with little idle CPU.  Utilization is consistently 90% 
I suppose the reporter uses SAR but should TOP be that FAR off?

Also,
I don't run socks, smtp, HA or a number of other features yet I see their "reporter"  PERL scripts running!

  • ok.. bit the bullet...

    Upgraded my hardware... 

    New Config is...

    AMD XP 2000+ with 768MB RAM

    running top shows:

    load average: 3.51, 2.81, 2.09
    and CPU Idle from 35% to 75%

    FYI.. I didn't reinstall...
    just swapped motherboards and enabled APIC and turned ACPI on.
