[Bug 574910] Re: High load averages on Lucid while idling

[Scott Moser]

I have 50 minutes of log from an otherwise idle instance running ubuntu-
lucid-10.04-amd64-server-20100427.1 on aki-c8b258a1.

$ while read loadavg < /proc/loadavg && echo "$(date): ${loadavg}" &&
sleep 10 ; do : ; done

that shows highest load of 0.08 for a 1 minute period (the first field)
and nothing over 0.02 for the 5 minute average.

This was showing much higher spikes than that on the default kernel
associated with the ami.

The instance was launched with:
ec2-run-instances --region us-east-1 --instance-type m1.large --kernel aki-c8b258a1 ami-fd4aa494
