The CPU load is a measure of how busy an operating system is.
If a system is too busy and you need to execute an heavy task that may not be prioritary, it may be better to hold on the task for a while until the system becomes less busy.
This class is capable of retrieving the current CPU load, and so it can be useful to make task scheduling decisions that depend on how busy the operating system is on the moment.

This class can be used to retrieve the CPU load level on a system running Linux.
The class retrieves the CPU load information from /proc/stat and returns the user, nice and system mode loads, the CPU load percentage, and the idle load percentage.
