Hi, i am seeing some strange things on a lpar which we have at this moment. With nmon i see a process aix_timeout_thread which is using lots of cpu (70-80%, all cpu which is "free" is used). This is a kernel process (for as far i can find out) but i am wondering what is causing this to happen...

Cpu time

Hi Experts, If a thread running on CPU needs some data from RAM (from near or far RAM) it requests the data (this moment of time is t0) and gets it in moment of time in t1, and continues his work. Between t0 and t1, while data is transferring from RAM, the thread is goes out from CPU? Is the...

Why CPU time is longer than Elasped time?

I thought a program's elapsed time, some program language call it real time, should be the time of a program from start to finish. And it should be equal or longer than CPU time. This is true for the most of the cases. However, I do see some of my programs CPU time is longer than Elapsed time. ...

clock

clock(3C)						   Standard C Library Functions 						 clock(3C)

NAME

       clock - report CPU time used

SYNOPSIS

       #include <time.h>

       clock_t clock(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The clock() function returns the amount of CPU time (in microseconds) used since the first call to clock() in the calling process. The time
       reported is the sum of the user and system times of the calling process and its terminated child processes for which it	has  executed  the
       wait(3C) function, the pclose(3C) function, or the system(3C) function.

RETURN VALUES

       Dividing  the  value returned by clock() by the constant CLOCKS_PER_SEC, defined in the <time.h> header, will give the time in seconds.	If
       the process time used is not available or cannot be  represented, clock returns the value (clock_t) -1.

USAGE

       The value returned by clock() is defined in microseconds for compatibility with systems that have CPU clocks with much  higher  resolution.
       Because of this, the value returned will wrap around after accumulating only 2147 seconds of CPU time (about 36 minutes).
