It gets most of its information from sysctl and libkvm.Quote:>What proc files does top read for instance?
I'd suggest checking out "vmstat -i" and see if the rtc and clk
interrupts are working normally - the rates should be about 127 and
100 respectively.
There seems to be some problem with rtc interrupts getting lost on
some systems. Some of it may be due to suspend/resume problems on
laptops, so commenting apm out of the kernel config file (rather
than just disabeling it) may help.

Hi, Oyvin,
this symptom seems to occur when APM is in use.
I've seen reports that it occurs as soon as APM is
in the kernel; I've definitely seen it happen on
my laptop running 4.6-RELEASE after putting it into
APM sleep mode. My home machine (also 4.6-rel) has
APM in the kernel, and works fine, though.
Maybe try and take APM and related stuff out of Your
kernel, and see if it keeps happening.
If it does: Maybe do a send-pr?
Yours,
Florian

If so, are there any other ways to make it work on _every_ boot?

Except he said he is running a kernel without APM... hmmQuote:> this symptom seems to occur when APM is in use.

1. Getting top 3.5beta9 to work correctly with 64 bit executables
All,
Thanks for any help. I discovered that my version of top (3.5beta9) can
no longer monitor the memory consumption of my 64 bit Oracle
executables. It appears that my version of top has been compiled as a
32 bit app, and I suspect that it's having trouble reading the /proc
stuff correctly.
Does anyone know:
1) if recompiling top as a 64 bit app will help
and
2) if so, how to do it? I tried to figure it out from the cc and ld man
pages and could get no further than "wrong machine class" on top.o on
the link step. I figure that I'm close, but....
