Is my system idol process supposed to be taking up 82-96% of my CPU? How do I correct this?

Greetings --
Break out a dictionary and look up the word "idle," sometime. ;-}
The "System Idle Process" metric is the amount/percentage of time that
your CPU has *nothing* to do. A reading of 98-99% is generally
considered a good thing, and readings above 90% are normal. Think of
it like a car's engine idling in your driveway before you place the
car in gear.

Shut off the computer. Then the idle process will be 100%.
Do you now understand what "idle" means? Like - doing nothing - waiting for
work - being lazy - f**king off (-:
