What you want is a non-broken top...
The version of top you have simply adds the time of
all the running processes and uses it to calculate
the CPU state ... which won't work if you only see
10% of the GCCs.
What top _should_ do is get the CPU info from
/proc/stat, like vmstat does. You'll see your CPUs
are getting used like they should as soon as you
switch to a non-buggy top.
