I can't figure why the system's load average is so high. I'm thinking a HDD is dying but I see 1.) no wait. 2.) SMART displays nothing out of the ordinary.
I've given it all night to straight out. No performance problems noticed.
I have restarted all apache, nginx, php5-fpm processes thinking something was hanging, but nope. That would have displayed on top anywho. Thinking the OS is bugged. Haven't restarted the server (this is a dedi).
Any help appreciated.
