I was wondering about the load average the other day and googled across the following link: http://www.hawaga.org.uk/text/loadavg.html I would like to amplify this thread and ask, are there any utilities available to show which processes are "waiting in the run queue?" (I don't know the preferred way to say this ... perhaps even "ready to run.") Occasionally my Debian box gets hammered, but top shows minimal cpu usage, and I'd like to know the processes responsible. Thanks.
