Hi

I'm not dusputing that your system is able to cope with the load you are
putting on it. I'd to note that much of the CPU time that LVS uses is done
within the kernel and as such it will not show up in a load average or
%CPU utilisation as shown by top and friends. This is because cycles used
within the kernel more or less disapear from userspace, throwing the stats
out.
