Re: [cobalt-users] [RAQ2] huge CPU overload problem

[PowerClicks <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes this raq is on Release 4.0 OS.

UPDATE:

Just did a reboot... things are now going VERY slow on this raq.
In telnet I get:

    bash: /usr/bin/id: Too many open files in system
    [: too many arguments

seems CPU load is back up although I'm still waiting for top to confirm the
numbers
