Here's a question for you all. When looking at overall server load through Cpanel, what do you consider a "stressfull" load? I've watched mine hold 15 - 20 for hours with not much degradation in delivery. Right now apache is showing between 50 - 70 servers active and the load is at about 1.8 - 2.2. It only seems to degrade when servers get up to about 100 - then the front end starts slowing down.

I know that's not granular - but it is a good indication of overall server stress?

Thanks!
1 x # of cpu or less is best, meaning instructions dont wait to be processed.

anything below 2 per cpu is quite alright in my book.

Dont be fooled though, HyperThreading CPUs are not two cpus... they're more like 1.10-1.25 CPUs...
