- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

All four cores at 100%? We don't see that kind of spike when we open some other application right? Is it the experience of everyone? Or am I wrong in this?
That first data point is simply invalid. Ignore it. Monitoring software usually report some kind of statistic (mean, median, min/max, etc) taken from measurements over a period of time instead of the instantaneous value when the report is updated. But they can't do that for the first data point when the application is launched because there's no time period over which to measure it.
I mean, maybe. Imagine averaging the usage over a single instruction cycle. Whatever ran that instruction is using 100% of the processor for that time period.
I paid for all the cores, I'm gonna use all the cores!
Top revs the engine as a test /s
It's like when the boss walks in so everybody becomes visibly busy. Never want to look like you could be the couple pennies shaved off the budget when management bonus calculation time comes around.
Absolutely. That's why race to idle is a thing. As soon as the CPU is fed cycles it races to complete the task as quickly as possible. When the program first launches and starts monitoring the only thing it knows is that it was just doing something. It hasn't had a change to not do something. It's now completed its race and now it's able to relax for a second and idle.
