Hello,

I think there is a regression since 2.6.26 in time accounting of processes.

kthreadd and console-kit-daemons claim they spent 5124095 hours using CPU.

Could be - we changed quite a bit.

My 2.6.27-rc1-mm1 kthreadd looks OK in `top'.  How are you displaying
this information?  More details if possible, please..

Top's doing crazy things on my machine too after booting 2.6.27-rc1 - like Xorg
showing 859% CPU usage on 4 CPU machine and generally any process running even
shortly shows up as using anywhere between 100 and 150% CPU.

This is on x86 - Q6600 6Gb RAM. Let me know if anything else would be
interesting to know.

Can you test with tip/sched/clock ?

-tip from today  seems alright - for the 5 minutes I tested with
x11perf the top shows max CPU usage around 125%.

I assume changes from -tip will flow in mainline sooner or later - if
so this should be sorted out soon.
