Linux Load Averages: Solving the Mystery

Currently all of the averages are under 1, but all of them was above 5 six days ago, which is not good in the case of a 4-core CPU.

This big value was made by the Folding@home client. I checked this by the "top" command.
First, I closed (shut down) the program based on its PIDs by the "sudo kill" command (it had two PIDs), then I uninstalled the program, because shortly after I closed (shut down) the program, the program was restarted itself.

I looked at this, because my computer is quiet by default, but it was very loud, and I started to check to see what caused this. Now the computer is quiet again.

I used many programs, but nothing else (not even the BOINC client) is so much demanding as the Folding@home client.

Hello! I am well, and I hope that you are also well. This post is about the CPU usage of the programs on Linux. It is nice to be on the Steem/Hive blockchain again. I used Hive in the past, and I will probably keep using it in the future. At least with the Steem Monsters/Splinterlands game. Have a nice day and have a nice weekend! All the best!

I see! That's great that you're involved with Steem Monsters. It's not something that I ever got into. But kind of wish that I had when it was first created.

I'm doing well. I sold out of most of my crypto to help with paying off some debts. But I'm back again to rebuild my account and work towards getting that dolphin status again.

It's nice to see some familiar faces here. :)
