Hello,
I use php as front-end to query our database. When I use System Monitor to check the usage of cpu and memory, I noticed
thatthe cpu very easily gets up to 100%. Is that normal? if not, could someone points out possible reason?  


I am using linux7.3, pgsql 7.3.4, 1G Memory and 2GHz CPU.

Regards,
William
