Memory consumption is not load! And it's pretty normal that Linux uses |
| 10 |
up all available RAM. Substract the current cache and buffer values and |
| 11 |
it's more like the classic idea of "free RAM". |

System load is independent from that and is expressed in the CPU usage |
| 14 |
numbers e.g. displayed by "top" (I don't use Conky, so I've got no idea |
| 15 |
how it looks there). When the "idle" value stays at 0%, your machine |
| 16 |
_is_ likely under heavy load :-). This would also be expressed in the |
| 17 |
average load display ("top" again), which would indicate with values |
| 18 |
>1.00 that in average, there's more than one process waiting for the CPU. |
