Where exactly? This is from an SMP machine:

26 processes:  2 running, 24 sleeping
CPU states: 14.0% user,  0.0% nice,  0.2% system, 19.5% interrupt, 66.3% 
idle
Mem: 165M Active, 582M Inact, 205M Wired, 44M Cache, 112M Buf, 5560K Free

Here is "pigs" from the same:
root     idle: cpu0 XXXXXXXXXXXXX
             <idle> XXXXXXXXXXXX
root     idle: cpu1 XXXXXXXXXXXX
root        rxxxxxx XXXXX
root     irq18: em2 XXX
root     irq17: em1 XXX
