XR1000 - 3 Cores - 2 Active / 1 Inactive

Question to other XR1000 users.  Unit has three cores CPU0,1 and 2.  In the status diplays #0 and #1 are shown being active with various CPU loads over time.  However #2 is always showing 0 level of activity.  Other seeing the same?

  • I believe the 3rd core is reserved for a specific purpose so you won't always see that being used. I think it is for packet acceleration.

      Mine is the same. Core 2 seems to always stay at zero.
