Subject: [PATCH] Fix inaccurate %CPU values in the Processes table
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Multi-core machines were displaying inaccurate %CPU values due to a
loss of precision from performing integer division before multiplication.
This changes the order of operations so that no precision is lost, and
now all machines will display process %CPU values to within 1% accuracy.
