Re: [cobalt-users] the CPU is on fire

Hehe, you're right. I had some dangbramage and forgot that all the processes
are in queue, since the processor can only "process" 1 program at a time.
However, I'd still look into it. I ran up the CPU on my RaQ3 for testing
purposes using distributed.net's dnetc cracking program. With the CPU load
at 0.00, the processor was 26 C. Running dnetc, with a load of 1, the
processor was 40-41 C. So, if your fan's not up to snuff, I would be
monitoring that temperature, especially with all the hardware crammed into
that pretty cobalt blue 1U case ;-).
