Load Average

Hello linoders …

Is the load average estimated on

a) my linode

or

b) the host

?

Your linode.

Now, if the host is suffering under a large I/O load then your own linode will see slow I/O response and so the load average will go up, so the value you see is impacted by what else is on the host, but the value is just your host's value.

Thanks sweh … I just wanted to be sure that what I do does not impact on other linodes.
