Very brief topic. Explain what "Solaris mode" in the preferences dialog + means. The current manual has some information.

+
+ +

In a system that has multiple CPUs or cores, + processes can use more than one at the same time. It is possible for the + % CPU column to display values that total greater than 100% (i.e. + 400% in a 4-CPU system). Solaris mode divides the % CPU + for each process by the number of CPUs in the system so that the total will be + 100%.

+ +

To display the % CPU in Solaris mode:

+ + +

Click Preferences in the app menu.

+

Click the Processes tab.

+

Select Divide CPU Usage by CPU Count.

+
+ +

The term Solaris mode derives from Sun's UNIX, compared + to the Linux default of IRIX mode, named for SGI's UNIX.
