+The I<Load plugin> collects the system load. These numbers give a rough overview
+over the utilization of a machine. The system load is defined as the number of
+runnable tasks in the run-queue and is provided by many operating systems as a
+one, five or fifteen minute average.
+
+The following configuration options are available:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<ReportRelative> B<false>|B<true>
+
+When enabled, system load divided by number of available CPU cores is reported
+for intervals 1 min, 5 min and 15 min. Defaults to false.
