I have only one CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
(2400.10-MHz K8-class CPU)
Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x6fb Stepping = 11
Features=0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,
This is from systat -v and this behavior is not the same as yours, CSW
during problems could be from normal 8k -11k CSW some time rise to 57k for a
1-2 sec but system load ~30% in system and 10-20 process in block state
process.
