Here's my typical load: last pid: 96934; load averages: 0.03, 0.06, 0.05 up 29+20:47:07 10:16:09 68 processes: 1 running, 67 sleeping CPU states: 0.4% user, 0.0% nice, 0.4% system, 0.0% interrupt, 99.2% idle Mem: 140M Active, 35M Inact, 103M Wired, 12M Cache, 41M Buf, 15M Free Swap: 512M Total, 127M Used, 385M Free, 24% Inuse Swap use is around 22%. This box mostly functions as mail server and there are times when it gets a lot of emails to send. The load goes higher then. The highest I recall (with no freeze mind you) was about 7.something. But typically it does not go above 1.5. -- Zbigniew Szalbot
