load average in SCO UNIX incorrect

[Ronald van der Pol]

Who is lying?

syspro$ w
  2:56pm  up 5 days, 18:42,  8 users,  load average: 4.20, 4.16, 4.01
User     Tty       Login@  Idle   JCPU   PCPU  What

syspro$ ruptime
deskpro       up    23:17,     0 users,  load 1.14, 1.02, 1.02
syspro        up  5+18:43,     8 users,  load 1.11, 1.13, 1.19

A load of 4.20 can't be true on our system!
