Hello.

I've noticed strange information in CPU usage ratio. Namely, CPU Monitor KDE plugin shows that (usually) CPU usage is about 7-8%, while in the output of
Code:
ps -A -O "%C"
I see processes that use 20% and 30% CPU. Is that normal? Why does the sum of the values in ps output differ from what KDE plugin shows?

I think I really have 2 cores with hyperthreading.
Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
reports 4 processors.
