Load Avarage graph pattern

[Oren Shani]

I think I know already what the reason is. It's simply because avaraging a stairs
function (in this case, the length of the ready queue), over a constant period,
gives a seemingly exponential pattern. Infact, this is simply a derive of a
geometrical series... This is quite easy to show... 

Geez, I didn't think I will get so much response to that :-)
