		* = maximum CPU%				# = average CPU%

!--- 72-hour output omitted

The top two rows, read vertically, display the highest percentage of CPU utilization recorded during the time increment. In this example, the CPU utilization for the last minute recorded is 66 percent. The device may have reached 66 percent only once during that minute, or it may have reached 66 percent multiple times. The device records only the peak reached during the time increment and the average over the course of that increment.

The following is sample output from the show processes cpu command that shows an ARP probe process:

Table 133 describes the fields shown in the output.
Table 133		show processes cpu Field Descriptions
Field			Description
CPU utilization			CPU utilization for the last 5 seconds. The second number indicates the percent of
for five seconds			CPU time spent at the interrupt level.
one minute			CPU utilization for the last minute.
five minutes			CPU utilization for the last 5 minutes.
PID			Process ID.
Runtime (ms)			CPU time that the process has used (in milliseconds).
Invoked			Number of times that the process has been invoked.
uSecs			Microseconds of CPU time for each process invocation.
5Sec			CPU utilization by task in the last 5 seconds.
1Min			CPU utilization by task in the last minute.
5Min			CPU utilization by task in the last 5 minutes.
TTY			Terminal that controls the process.
