cpu problem


When I am on a heavy task neither cpu reaches 100%. So if cpu0 is 99% cpu1 is 1%, if cpu0 is 38% cpu1 is 62%. I don't run cpufreq. How can I make the processors both work at full speed?

It sounds like you are running a single CPU bound process. If you want to get over 100% CPU usage run two or more CPU bound processes simultaneously. Or you could run a single CPU bound program which multi threads.
