Hi

My loadav (using kernel 2.6.9 and above) in my guest kernels is always
at least 1.0... does anyone else get this?

top - 10:20:34 up  2:21,  1 user,  load average: 1.00, 1.00, 0.92
Tasks:  46 total,   2 running,  44 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s):  0.0% us,  0.0% sy,  0.0% ni,  0.0% id,  0.0% wa, 100.0% hi,  0.0% si

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
    1 root      16   0  1328  448  400 S  0.0  0.2   0:00.02 init

>From watching top it looks like ksoftirqd is always runnable - it looks like 
>it isn't eating any 
CPU, but why is isn't it sleeping like it is on a real kernel?
