 +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:

 +
 +=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.
