process.Percent sometime return wrong value when have mary goroutines

[xiaoshi100086]

Describe the bug process.Percent sometime return wrong value when have mary goroutines. To Reproduce I write demo code.

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"os"
	"time"

	"github.com/shirou/gopsutil/process"
)

const MaxPercent = 800 // the machine have 8 cpu

// print process cpu usage per second
func metric() {
	p, err := process.NewProcess(int32(os.Getpid()))
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	var lastTicker = time.Now()
	ticker := time.NewTicker(time.Second)
	for range ticker.C {
		now := time.Now()

		percent, err := p.Percent(0)
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		if percent > MaxPercent {
			fmt.Printf("process percent: %f, \tticker interval: %fs\n", percent, now.Sub(lastTicker).Seconds())
		}

		lastTicker = now
	}
}

func main() {
	for i := 0; i < 10000; i++ {
		go func() {
			for {
			}
		}()
	}
	go metric()
	<-make(chan struct{})
}

go.mod

module demo

go 1.15

require (
	github.com/shirou/gopsutil v3.21.11+incompatible
	github.com/tklauser/go-sysconf v0.3.9 // indirect
)

Expected behavior [A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.] The print txt "process percent" should be <= 800, because the machine have 8 cpu.

But I got this:

process percent: 168871696.801113,      ticker interval: 33.316982s
process percent: 20228.992191,  ticker interval: 29.470608s
process percent: 225733353.254644,      ticker interval: 31.351190s
process percent: 208994766.209612,      ticker interval: 31.867065s

Since the ticker interval in your code is 30sec, I think the load is too high and getting the time is too slow. Now I do not know how to solve this problem.
