I use "s1" and "i".

I have the subjective feeling, that in former versions of FreeBSD
top displayed processes more regulary. Now very often the list
of processes is relatively unpopulated although the machine is busy
doing things.

Is this due to changes in design of the scheduler ?

Im using the BSD scheduler not ULE.
