Hello,
I have a 7204 router running high CPU but not showing any high processes. I am not sure what is causing this and wondering if this is just a natural case of a hardware upgrade required:

System image file is "slot0:c7200-js-mz.122-5.bin"
cisco 7204 (NPE200) processor (revision B) with 114688K/16384K bytes of memory
Processor board ID 11061307
R5000 CPU at 200Mhz, Implementation 35, Rev 2.1, 512KB L2 Cache
4 slot midplane, Version 1.0
I don't believe this is causing any performance degradation to users but management of the device drops in and out frequently.
Can anyone advise whether it is wise to upgrade RAM, or if there is an uderlying problem causing high CPU?
