Re: [Swift] Load Average node storage

I guess it depends on what is causing the load. (are there processes eating all cpu cycles?)

What we see is that the object-auditor and object-replicator can cause quite a bit of load because they are crawling the filesystems and waiting for IO.
You can try to turn these off for a while to see if the load is caused by them.

Is it properly configured in the ring files? (as in: does it have files on its filesystems)
Are the object-auditor and replicator running?
