|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|

|
|
gives a one line display of the following information. The current time, how

This is the same information contained in the header line displayed by

|
|
System load averages is the average number of processes that are either in a
|
|
runnable or uninterruptable state. A process in a runnable state is either
|
|
using the CPU or waiting to use the CPU. A process in uninterruptable state
|
|
is waiting for some I/O access, eg waiting for disk. The averages are taken
|
|
over the three time intervals. Load averages are not normalized for the
|
|
number of CPUs in a system, so a load average of 1 means a single CPU system
|
|
is loaded all the time while on a 4 CPU system it means it was idle 75% of
|
|
the time.
