List,
I know I've seen questions to this before, but I couldn't find the
answer on the archive. I've got a Dual P3-550 + 1GB with 3 9G SCSI drives.
This box runs my PostgreSQL server. I was performing a data import with
`psql -f somefile -U post...`.
Well then I looked at top and saw that my loadavg was 1.9# 1.4 1.##. Anyhow
after reading that, I looked and saw CPU usage with ~5% Kernel, ~10-25%
User. `free` said I still had about 2/3rds of my physical ram free, none of
the swap was being used. So my question is, how can LoadAvg be 1.9 or
sometimes even >2 when CPU and Memory are well below any danger thresholds?
How could I check disk performance? Could that be the bottle neck? TIA
