+ <comment>
+ <cite date="2011-06-18" href="mailto:philbull gmail com">Phil Bull</cite>
+ <p>Explain that computers have finite processing resources and can only run so many things
simultaneously, by sharing processor time between processes. Explain how to check how much CPU capacity is
being used, mention how this affects computers with multiple processors, and explain that high usage (~100%)
means that the computer will run more slowly.</p>
+ <p>Be careful here, as there are a number of technical terms (process, CPU/processor, multi-core, system
resources...) that may be used here, but which will need to be explained for less advanced users.</p>

+ <p>Explain why more than one CPU might be shown in the Resources tab. (Multi-core system.) Explain the
implications of having multiple cores - the computer can do more simultaneously, but individual processes
won't generally run faster. Don't go into too much technical detail.</p>
