When you work on OS development, you spend a -lot- of time waiting on compiling experiments. Wasted time.

So, finally broke down on a big workstation upgrade:

@lrvick Man, I'd hate to be typing (or listening to audio) on a system console running with LoadAvg 110 !

@jab01701mid This is running from a stagex ramdrive, exclusively as a build system I operate via ssh from my existing daily driver workstation :D

@jab01701mid Also with that number of cores, a 110 load average is only like 26% utilization! lol.

@lrvick I was wondering if LoadAvg was multiplied by cores. My rule of thumb is when I see LoadAvg/core above 1 or 2, I start to worry, unless I'm intentionally stressing a system. Nobody should have to wait more than a slice or two if they are ready...
