top info
Hi,
i'm now sucessfully running our mysql-server with debian
pure64 for two days :-). when running top the summary output
is something like this:
--

'us' means user, 'sy' means system, 'id' means idle, but what does 'ni','hi',
'si' and especially 'wa' mean? i see that most often 'wa' has relatively high
values.
sry if this is may be offtopic, but i didn't my any answer on this anywhere.
not even in the top manuals... (or i'm blind *g*). could anyone give me
a hint on this? :)
