k.v.manjunath Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Hi All, I am Manjunath from India. I am new to Linux and I am very much interested in learning things in Linux. Recently I installed the Debian on my AMD 64 3000+ system and I am having problem with the CPU usage. My CPU is running @ 100% even though there are no application running. When I checked the System Monitoring, my CPU usage is around 20%. My CPU is getting heated very soon. Please tell me how to reduce the CPU usage so that my processor runs cooler.

steviewdr Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 You need to run: top and see what process is chewing up the cpu. Kill the process then by going: kill PID(number from top) -steve Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175779-cpu-frequency-usage/#findComment-928618 Share on other sites More sharing options...
