ok, so I have a script im running on a linux box that uses "egrep" a lot. now, when i run this script, i check the TOP to see how much system resource it is using.
the "top" command gives the following output:
In the above output, it shows that the egrep command is using 99% of the CPU. does this mean it is actually taking up 99% of the entire CPU resource of the system, which would mean there's only 1% left for the other numerous processes on the system to use? this can't be right.
What do I need to look at in the above output to determine or isolate the system impact of this script i'm running.

Is this interpretation correct?
