I think we're talking about different things here, I probably wasn't entirely clear about this. It's the numerator of this division that I'm concerned about and I wonder if this should be: (cpu_tasks[i]->runtime * 100) / total_time If total_time is 10 seconds and there's a task A which runs on CPU0 for 2 seconds and CPU1 for 1 second then I expect to see: CPU 0 A 2.000 (20%) CPU 1 A 1.000 (10%) But at the moment both of those lines will give 30% (although the actual run times are correct).
