[csw-buildfarm] Kernel load is high on build8x

[William Bonnet]

Hi

Running a top on build8x gives the following output

load averages:  1.32,  1.95,  1.92;               up 
77+17:53:38                                                   15:31:33

Kernel load is always between 50% and as high as 75%.

Just wondering if  everything is ok on this box ?

cheers
