That would make it hard to compare. But resource monitor shows:
cpu1 & cpu 2 both running at about 30%, with the system idle and only
resource monitor running. Memory shows 53% of 1.25gb used. Swap not
used at all, 8 gb.
If I widen the System Monitor display on the processes page an inch or
so, debian crashes. Could this be a cpu issue? Why is cpu usage so
high?
