Jim,
ProcessorUtilization has no upper limit. The number is based on
a Netware clock tick, 1/100 of a second. Therefore, a ProcessorUtilization
number of 100 will not do a threadSwitch for up to 1 second.
You'll see the most benifit using this option if your using
file compression/decompression as this is the most processor intensive
function of the client.
If you set this option to 1000, that would allow ADSM to hog
the CPU for a full 10 seconds, which would in turn probably
disconnect any user that happened to be logged on. Use the
high number in emergencies, ie. just blown a disk, and need
it back fast!
