load averages - any guidlines?
Are there any definitions/guidelines on evaluating the numbers given in the load averages output from top (or uptime)? i.e. what does it really mean when it comes to evaluating if your CPU is a bottleneck vs. handling the load fine? This is for Solaris 8.
Thanks,
mjs

I understand the numbers displayed in variable "load average". My question: what are the correct/ideal numbers?
Sometimes, I got less than 1. Others, above 6.
Also, what HW/SW should I tune in order to have the ideal numbers?

lire::average
Average(3pm) LogReport's Lire Documentation Average(3pm)
NAME
Lire::Average - Lire class that implements the avg operator
SYNOPSIS
use Lire::Average
DESCRIPTION
Class that implements the avg operator. This operator will compute the average value of a DLF field in a group of DLF records.
If the field used by average isn't a numeric fields, the number of different values in that field will be used as the numerator.
It's possible to compute a weighted average by specifying a weighting field.
By default, the average is a by record average. It's possible to compute a by different values average. The list of fields that's used to
determine the different values if speficied in the by-fields attribute.
METHODS
new( %params )
Creates a new Lire::Average object. In addition to the values supported by its parents, the by-fields and weight attributes will be
initialized to the values specified in the %params argument.
by_fields( [$new_by_fields] )
Returns the fields that are going to be used to count the different values which will made up the by part of the average.
This a reference to an array of DLF field names.
If the $new_by_fields parameter is set, it will be used as the new $by_fields value. It must be an array reference and should only contains
valid field names for the current report specification's schema.
weigth( [$new_weight] )
Returns the DLF field's name by which the values will be multiplied before being summed.
You can change the weight field by specifying a new name as the $new_weight parameter. Use undef to remove the use of a weighting field.
