Under System Monitor, the "Resources" tab displays 99% to 100% cpu.
However, this value is false because of two reasons:
a) My cpu fan will always kick in whenever cpu usage moves past 60++%.
b) The "Processes" tab tells a different story: the total of the cpu usage of my applications tends to stay around the range of 5% to 30++% cpu, with a few exceptions.
This issue didn't happen before I applied the updates for Ubuntu.
