My students have reported consistent load averages of over 30 (over 50 since the load increased due to downtime.) The overall load during a day might be small, but students shouldn't have to come in at 0300 just to do an assignment. THAT is overloaded. P.S. As a student not too long ago I felt that way. A compilation took 45 min. at times. And THAT IS OVERLOADED! (On an unloaded system it took under 2 min.) -- Stephen Perelgut Computer Systems Research Group University of Toronto Usenet: {linus, ihnp4, allegra, decvax, floyd}!utcsrgv!perelgut CSNET: perelgut@Toronto
