My /proc/loadavg looks like
0.04 0.06 0.07 3/56 959
The first three numbers are the average load over the past 1, 5, and
15 minutes, as is reported by 'uptime' and what not. "3/56" means
that three processes are currently running, out of 56 total. "959" is
the pid of the last process to run, here corresponding to a 'cat'
process.
