Note - you'd be better off using Linux::SysInfo (on Linux, obviously)
to save the backtick call.

This seems like rather an obvious idea: Reject new

there seem to be no plugins which I could find implementing it.
So here's mine:
http://mail-scanning.com/qpsmtpd/system-load
This reads /etc/qpsmtpd/max_system_load, and if the system load
is equal or higher than the value contained within it it is rejected.
Comments welcome, and I'm happy for it to be used in the core,
or in
contrib if there is any interest.
