From there you'll find d or s Set update interval Set it to maybe something like 60 seconds. I set it to 60 seconds. Now it shows values from 17 to 20 point something... ID: 62676 ·

You say that with 60% you actually get 60% CPU usage. Could you try other values too? Any chance some other Linux & 7.2.42 user could try this? I can't do it myself right now. ID: 62702 ·

When I set it to 60% I get about 56% usage. For 50% it was somewhere in the middle, I can check it again and try other values tomorrow. ID: 62704 ·

BTW for 20% elapsed time is running slowly too even tough CPU usage is correct. 10 seconds for 51 actual seconds. ID: 62714 ·

The Elapsed time value smaller than the CPU time value. Coelum Non Animum Mutant, Qui Trans Mare Currunt ID: 62715 ·
