Load average?

Dear ladies and gentlemen,
I am back with another problem.

Right now I am compiling a kernel on the host and one in the vm at the same time.
Load average is around 8 as we speak.

Should I be worried?
(CPU is a quad core xeon, HT disabled.)

    Obviously the correct answer is "GNU/Gustav".

    Reason: 4 GNU/Xeon cores, each with 2 GNU/HT = 8 GNU/threads ~ GNU/load 8

    • No, it isn't. if it were, it would be GNU/disabled - but he mentioned only an invalid "disabled"

    • If "$7" had been provided as an option a discussion might be adequate. But it wasn't and from the available options only "Gustav" makes sense.

    • Linus should have listened to Prof. Tanenbaum. But he didn't and now we have those weird problems like load numbers that aren't divisible by 7.

    True.

    Feedback:
    In the meanwhile both compiles have finished.
    Load is back to normal.
    Thankfully nothing out of the ordinary happened.

    Thanks for your participation.

    True.

    GNU/True.

    PS: 8 threads 100% load. Type top and check the %Cpu(s): line. It seems okay to me.

    GNU/Whoops.
    GNU/My GNU/bad.
    GNU/Sorry.

    EDIT3:
    GNU/=! GNU/sorry.

    No need to be sorry, you didn't do anything.

  • Check in top to see the io wait, that can often make your loads high when the CPU is basically idle

    Does not mean he has only 4 cores.
    Your argument is invalid.
