What do you mean by this? What are the wait types? Waiting is normal, there are typically hundreds of processes running in SQL server, they can't all be on a scheduler(Processor) at once. If they are waiting for IO, Memory, Locks etc... they go into the waiting list until they have the resources they need, then they go into the runnable list until they get processor time. If a certain wait type seems high, then you would need to troubleshoot that.
