Normal CPU Usage
I have posted a screen shot of my CPU usage.
Is that normal when I am only running a running a vnc session and firefox.
I am just curious that it seems to be a lot of cpu usage for having nearly nothing open.
Hardware
Dell T5500
RHEL 6.2 64 bit os
2.6.32-220.7.1
2.28.2 gnome
Intel Xeon Quad Core Processor N Series.

VNC is pretty resource intensive. It looks like between VNC, firefox, and the rest of your system, you are consuming about 50% of available CPU. Whether or not that is excessive, that is TBD. I run an 8 core E5450 (Penryn CPU) system, and I can consume 50% or more of available processor cycles pretty easily when I am doing video processing, compiling, etc.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
