Unless I'm wrong, the click router exploits the idle cycles of the
kernel to undertake its polling and other tasks. So unless you are
wanting to undertake power management, why are you worried about the
CPU being at 100% if click is just filling the idle tasks ? I am sure
Eddie or someone else will correct me if I am wrong.
