I'm not sure what you mean by "like 'top' does".  As far as I'm aware,
top on Solaris never shows the usage of individual CPUs.  

The Orca graphs should be the same as the top figures (an aggregate).

Do you use pbind or psrset so that the figures for one CPU would be
significantly different from the system as a whole?
