Hi
We have migrated our AIX 4.3.3 system to AIX 5L . We noticed that the system
was a bit slow. On doing a basic ps aux this is the output I get
afdev>ps aux | more

as you can see they seem to show very high CPU. I have even tried to
shutdown the box and restart and we still get these processes.
Oslevel gives the following output.
afdev>oslevel -r
5100-03
Any ideas what these are and how to get rid of these.
