A common method for determining system utilization

do you think that it is worthwhile having a APR function to determine 
system load ?

I was thinking of adding a feature to mod_defalte which turns it off if 
system load goes over a magic number.

I like the idea.  But do you really want load (in the Unix sense, i.e.
run queue length), or would % CPU utilization be a better metric?
