Default why is my folder cpu's only@03% is this normal??
I find it strange that when I look at the cpu and ram usage on my folding box it shows upto a max of 08% cpu usage is that normal? I had never really looked at that before I had thought thta the usage would be at least 50%.

sounds like your folding client died or something. that's about normal for system overhead.

If you were folding cpu it should be close to 100%. Heck, it should be higher than 8%, even folding just gpu in some cases.

Perhaps restart the machine to see if that fixes the issue? You could always try re-installing the client.

Yea that seems really strange all my rigs report 100% unless I'm doing something like -smp 3 or something. Like Mathus said maybe a restart or reinstall will solve the problem but if your points are still coming in to what's expected I guess there's really no cause for concern.
