Hi,

While getloadavg works ok on aix4, it returns incorrect results on
aix5.

Why do we not use libperfstat on aix?
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/pseries/v5r3/topic/com.ibm.aix.basetechref/doc/basetrf1/perfstat_cputot.htm

It has the advantage of not requiring root privs to get the loadavg.

Anyway, this resulted in more accurate results for us.

Peter
