I would be concerned if that load average directly translates to the 
load average reported by uptime or top.  (I don't know if it's a 
multiple or even related.)

I personally like to see load averages not much higher than the number 
of CPUs (cores) a machine has.  There is wiggle room for some overage, 
but never more than double the number of CPUs.

Any time I've seen load average that high, particularly on Linux, it was 
an indication that some other part of the system was really Really 
REALLY hurting.  Once I solved that problem, the load average dropped 
and everything was okay.

Linux is notorious for Disk I/O (wait) driving the load average numbers up.
