This is one of the fixes listed on the errata page: "Due to prematurely decremented calc_load_task, the calculated load (snip)" From: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-0494.html No idea if that is impacting the load shown on your machine .. maybe someone has some ideas. An RHEL user is reporting what seems to be the same issue: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/2247501 Thanks, it is nice to see that others are experiencing this too and that it is already reported upstream.
