I notice that the elapsed time is 00:00:00.  Typically that happens to 
me when I hit F10 over and over again.  In that circumstance, I get all 
kinds of strange results, like jobs adding up to more than 100%, the 
total CPU percentage going to "++++", that sort of thing.

Your results may be more accurate if you take a sampling over a longer 
time span, at least a few seconds.
