Description Martin Prpič 2011-09-27 07:26:05 UTC 
Description of problem:

The 3.3. cpuacct section contains incorrect information regarding the cpuacct.stat parameter. It does not report CPU cycles but reports CPU time which tasks are consuming in two modes: system and user.

Expected results:

Fix the documentation. Also, add a note on how to reset come of the cpuacct parameters.
