Output on the work-able system is as follows: Node 0, zone Normal 2974 3405 2898 2237 1671 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2878 3384 2898 2237 1671 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2827 3365 2898 2237 1671 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2899 3358 2899 2237 1671 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2930 3363 2899 2237 1671 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2897 3362 2898 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2860 3329 2898 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2831 3327 2883 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2869 3330 2872 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2869 3331 2874 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2844 3328 2872 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2896 3332 2872 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 2859 3336 2872 2236 1672 1021 462 164 23 2 0 Node 0, zone Normal 283 208 132 77 46 816 462 164 23 0 0 Node 0, zone Normal 295 204 132 77 46 21 31 163 23 0 0 Node 0, zone Normal 280 204 132 77 45 21 31 163 23 0 0 Node 0, zone Normal 372 213 135 79 46 20 31 163 23 0 0 Node 0, zone Normal 273 205 133 78 46 21 32 164 22 0 0 Node 0, zone Normal 336 210 133 79 47 21 30 164 22 0 0 Here we clearly see that once the number's for power-0 comes down, the numbers for power-1 and so on, decreases but that does not happen on the other system. -- Thanks, -aka http://blog.amit-agarwal.co.in _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
