All,
 
    I just installed the lastest cygwin version on an XP Professional
SP2 machine and noticed the output of the top command always reports
wrong info (0.0%) about the CPU usage summary as you can see in the
example:
 
Tasks:  10 total,   1 running,   9 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu0  :   0.0% user,   0.0% system,   0.0% nice,   0.0% idle
Mem:    522776k total,   308740k used,   214036k free,        0k buffers
Swap:  2097152k total,    70060k used,  2027092k free,        0k cached

Is that an error or just the normal behavior?
