load average has no meaning with FS, you have to look at the CPU usage per CPU and thread.
Are you experiencing any audio problems or are you just concerned about that load number?

If you have a box that has trouble with timing it could cost more resources.
you can always run freeswitch -vm to use an alternate form of timing that may not manifest into the load average.

hi

we do experience a unusual high server load with the latest freeswitch versions.
about 50 conference users lead to a server load of over 10 - reproducible by the way.
this wans't the case until my latest trunk update.

fs version: 16714
os: debian lenny x86_64

has something substantially changed in mod_conference recently?
