Could you please tell me the kernel version you use? (uname -r)

I don't know for sure about this one, but I'd still want you to tell
me the kernel version. Could this happen because your kernel doesn't
see all the cores? This may happen on x86 kernels, but I may be wrong
again. Generally, this shouldn't indicate a CPU problem.
