So load averages (3, 5, and 10 minutes I think they are), means that over those periods of time, there were an average of how many processes in the run queue. You can have a load average of 5 or 50 or 500 if your system can handle it. CPU can affect these numbers. Slower CPUs or even more "intense" processes can cause higher load since processes will sit on the run queue a little longer. Basically, if you have 1 process sitting in the run queue (the things marked with an 'R' under the "ps -aux" output, for instance) for 5 minutes straight, then your 5 minute average should be 1.00 (given nothing else was runnable during that time). Also, don't forget that only one process can run per CPU at any instance :) Hope this helps. -Statux ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Question about Uptime
I have a Redhat 7.1, and I would like to know when I execute the command "uptime" I get the following: 11:39am up 19 days, 21:25, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.00 In the load average, it means thah I am using just the 0.01 % of my processor in a 5 minutes load average and that the max load I can have is 100.00, or it means that i am using the 1 % of mu processor and the max load is 1.00 i appreciate your help Sergio Campos ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
