Consider three processes, all arriving at time zero, with total execution time of 1010, 2020 and 3030 units, respectively. Each process spends the first 20%20\% of execution time doing I/O, the next 70%70\% of time doing computation, and the last 10%10\% of time doing I/O again. The operating system uses a shortest remaining compute time first scheduling algorithm and schedules a new process either when the running process gets blocked on I/O or when the running process finishes its compute burst. Assume that all I/O operations can be overlapped as much as possible. For what percentage of time does the CPU remain idle?
