Hello linoders ...

Is the load average estimated on
a) my linode
or
b) the host

?

Your linode.

Now, if the host is suffering under a large I/O load then your own linode will see slow I/O response and so the load average will go up, so the value you see _is_ impacted by what else is on the host, but the value is just your host's value.

Thanks sweh ... I just wanted to be sure that what I do does not impact on other linodes.
