VOXL CPU Performance with ROS
-
Hi,
I'm migrating an app to VOXL, and noticed the performance is better, but the hidden "sys" values are negating any advantage (28% when 21% is for system).Mem: 2737440K used, 1123880K free, 41796K shrd, 140144K buff, 1824000K cached CPU: 6.9% usr 20.9% sys 0.0% nic 67.4% idle 0.0% io 2.3% irq 2.3% sirq Load average: 3.84 3.14 1.65 4/750 13545
Using dmesg it seems it's overflowing with errors:

Any suggestions on how to diagnose this issue?

If you are just using top, it may not be the complete story. The Snapdragon 821 CPU scales the frequencies based on usage, but top does not take that into account.
The voxl-inspect-cpu tool does take that into account
The thermal and performance page may also be interesting

@Chad-Sweet Hi, the utility shows the same CPU usage if I add usr & sys.
