[Solved] High CPU utilization
Hi,

i am observing few processes taking high CPU and when i got some more detials about them it looks like this


Code:
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 9452 xmp       25   0 16736 1224  860 R 100.0  0.0 903:54.18 ffmpeg -i -
 9777 xmp       25   0 16736 1224  860 R 100.0  0.0 904:05.66 ffmpeg -i -

[xmp@sbymipxmp16 ~]$ ps -ef |grep ffmpeg
xmp       9452  8487 89 Nov11 ?        15:04:32 ffmpeg -i -
xmp       9777  8487 90 Nov11 ?        15:04:43 ffmpeg -i -
xmp      31020 29948  0 13:15 pts/3    00:00:00 grep ffmpeg
[xmp@sbymipxmp16 ~]$ pwd
pwd   pwdx
[xmp@sbymipxmp16 ~]$ pwdx 9452
9452: /var/xmp/proc/TCP-ROUTER.sbymipxmp16.4
[xmp@sbymipxmp16 ~]$ pwdx 9777
9777: /var/xmp/proc/TCP-ROUTER.sbymipxmp16.4

What does ? mean in ps -ef output? Can we kill these processes?

A ? in the TTY field means that process has no controlling terminal.
