Sometime Today, Sajid ali Baig assembled some asciibets to say:
when i am posting a query on linux user group it obviously means i am looking for a linux solution.
Not really. Some of the members of this group also use other unixes and we allow discussions for any Free unix. This includes linux based systems, hurd based systems, Free variants of BSD based systems, open solaris and any other free/open unix like operating system.
Whwn can one say that a CPU is overloaded.i mean running one more process would be very difficult .
The CPU technically isn't overloaded, however, there comes a time when total context switching time becomes significant compared to process execution time. I don't have any experience in this to give you relevant figures however.
