[arm-allstar] Load Average ?

[Luc Drolet VE2LUQ]

Hello ,

WOW, ok now I understand better,

it means CPU processor usage

A ratio/time
either for one minute, 5 minutes and 15 minutes

so as I was told, the lower these 3 decimal digits are, the better the CPU data processing will be

in other words the data processing speed of the CPU, the lower it can be these 3 numbers, the less data it must process in the CPU,

I think I understood

Thank you all,
For your help in my continued learning with Hamvoip

> "Load" is the unix/linux system load averages, by default they are from Left to right: 1 Minute, 5 Minutes and 15 Minutes. The "load" system in Linux takes into account many factors, but it's safe to say as a rule of thumb that as long as the major number (before the .) is below the number of threads/cores of your device, that you should see smooth sailing (so for a Pi 3B+ anything below 4.00 is good,) this is of course a guideline, not a solid fact.
