I just upgraded to Leopard on my Macbook Pro, and already I've noticed something strange. My processor usage seems to average at about 30%, while sometimes dropping to 15% and then skyrocketing to 90%. This is when the computer was *just* turned on, with no applications open...
I'm kind of anal, and definitely a worrier, so seeing these numbers makes me feel a little uneasy. Is this typical processor usage, or is this a indication of a possible underlying problem?
**Edit** Boy do I feel like an idiot now! The high processor usage was a result of Spotlight indexing my files...
I can relax now!
