aixlurker,

Well you could use :

sar -P ALL 5 5

This will show CPU load per processor. The figures should be relatively similar for each processor. In the past where this was not even I have used the bindprocessor command to lock an application to a processor.

Best of luck PSD

and install it. You will get a nice tool for performance
