Re: [vox-tech] ld-linux.so.2 taking up lots of CPU
it's the dynamic library used by anything that links at runtime. do an
ldd /bin/ls, and you should see ld-linux.so.2 (or something it's linked to).
it's a part of the rpm that provides glibc (or maybe ld.so?).
i have no idea why it would appear in top's output. that's just really
bizarre. only executables should appear, like ld.so.
computer possession? CPU overclock? hackers? UFO's?
i dunno!
