Hello, I've just installed FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE-p6 (GENERIC) on a AWOW Mini PC [1]. Completely idle, top(1) reports unusually high system CPU usage: CPU: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 27.7% system, 0.0% interrupt, 72.3% idle Running top -SH reveals that the CPU time is being consumed by kernel acpi_tasks: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND 11 root 187 ki31 0B 64K CPU0 0 29:22 97.15% idle{idle: cpu0} 11 root 187 ki31 0B 64K RUN 2 22:05 74.21% idle{idle: cpu2} 11 root 187 ki31 0B 64K CPU3 3 22:11 73.37% idle{idle: cpu3} 11 root 187 ki31 0B 64K RUN 1 21:59 70.21% idle{idle: cpu1} 0 root 8 - 0B 1456K - 0 8:08 29.74% kernel{acpi_task_1} 0 root 8 - 0B 1456K CPU3 3 8:30 28.67% kernel{acpi_task_2} 0 root 8 - 0B 1456K CPU1 1 8:31 26.09% kernel{acpi_task_0} The BIOS configurables for this system are pretty sparse; I'm not able to see or adjust any ACPI settings.

Any suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this further? Thank you Steve [1] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B4RMLCH7/?th=1
