 A per-cpuset, running average is employed for the following reasons:

 Because this meter is per-cpuset rather than per-process or per virtual
 memory region, the system load imposed by a batch scheduler monitoring
 this metric is sharply reduced on large systems, because a scan of
 the tasklist can be avoided on each set of queries.

 Because this meter is a running average rather than an accumulating

 On large systems, load balancing across many CPUs is expensive.
