We have two 780s, both have 96 ports and average 40 users during the day. Under these conditions, if there are several background jobs running, the load average gets as high as 15. That slows things down. You will note that ours was .86 with 6 users when I just sampled it. 3:48am up 2 days, 13:54, 6 users, load average: 0.86, 0.57, 0.80
