I've noticed that when I use ppp -nat, on my 56k modem, the load average of
the system seems to be a bit go high, when I ftp files across it. The cpu
(PII 400) is more then sufficiently powered to handle nat and ppp over a
modem. Nor is system paging to swap.

Anyone else noticed similar load averages? Top doesn't seem to provide any
evidence of ppp, being stuck in a busy loop.
