I actualy use "Top" because it's possible to space the "measures" of more than 10 seconds, which is not the case of "Htop". The tool should temporise, since the manipulation of windows eliminated the phenomenon. I will post when I have a result, if any. I wonder if some user has already observed this phenomenon.... Good luck to everyone, Patrick
