--- Comment #40 from Stavros Filargyropoulos <stav@stav.cc> ---
Just some more observations.

OpenBSD uses the same formula:
https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/2207c4325726fdc5c4bcd0011af0fdf7d3dab137/sys/uvm/uvm_meter.c

And load reported under similar usage is:

load averages:  0.00,  0.01,  0.00
