someone explain this to me:
albatross:~$ uname -a
Linux albatross 2.2.17 #2 Mon Sep 04 20:49:27 CET 2000 i586 unknown
albatross:~$ uptime
2:56am up 174 days, 5:50, 1 user, load average: 2.00, 2.05, 2.01
# processes sorted by decreasing cpu usage
albatross:~$ ps aux | head -1 && ps aux | sort -nrk3 | head -5
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND

the load average displayed by uptime has been very consistently above
2.00 and the output of ps aux has been pretty much the same for the
past two weeks. no hung jobs. no traffic. the server basically *isn't
being used*, especially not during the last 1, 5, or 15 minutes. and
cron isn't running, there are *only* 35 running jobs. why, oh why then
is it 200% loaded???
