I'm seeing a lot of CPU usage coming from a program named cc1plus. Its located in the: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.2/cc1plus My user account started it. I don't know why its hogging my CPU. Anyone know what its doing. Look to see if its running on your machine. I am compiling two programs, have KDE up, with about 5 terminals active on a SMP machine. -Lox
