[c-nsp] FWSM (3.1) - Memory and CPU issue

[Varaillon Jean Christophe]

Replying to my own post.

Concerning the CPU, this is a known issue:

CSCsi63155  "the CPU usage of one of the context goes up to 60% and it stays
there "
(http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm31/release/notes/fwsmrn31

This output shows clearly that the traffic is almost null but still it has
60% of CPU.
What could justify such a value?

FWSM/context2# show cpu usage
CPU utilization for 5 seconds = 60.5%; 1 minute: 62.2%; 5 minutes: 62.4%

FWSM/context2# show perfmon
