Hey, everything about load seems very strange.
0.00 means 0% idle? Should be 100%.
And 0.01 is not 1% overload, it’s 99% idle.
Overload starts at 1.01.
And “less than 0” sounds also weird.

Additionally, this is just true for a sinle CPU system, a 8 core is overloaded starting at 8.01. And if your system is overloaded, that could be a CPU problem, but it could also be an I/O problem. The load is a nice indicator to see if it looks good, but it didn’t help to find out what’s the problem.

@Samarth,
Yes, I am familiar with monitoring tools such as the ones you described in your comment. However, those are out of the scope of the LFCE certification. Thanks for your comment.

@by4,
Thank you for your comment and for your insight. I must confess I hadn’t seen it from that point of view. Best regards.
