[hobbit] BBWIN cpu

[Jon Boede]

The BBWIN cpu component reports cpu usage as load... for example, if 
cpu0 is 4% and cpu1 is 6% then it reports load=5%, the average of the two.

The thing is, that we've been watching the cpu utilization with the 
Windows tools and it never shows either cpu hitting 100% (more like 
maybe 70% max) even though bbwin frequently goes red, hitting 99 and 100%.
