Subject: Bug? Load avg 2.0 when idle.
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2004 20:29:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041024182918.GA12532@sommrey.de> (raw)

Hello,

there is a load average of 2.0+ even if the box is almost idle. (i.e. "top"
shows just one running process: top itself.) Starting two cpu-intensive
processes raises the load average to 4.0+.  How can I determine the
source for the high load, or is this a bug?
I'm running 2.6.9 on a dual-athlon box.

Thanks,
-jo
