It should be described what the unit for the displayed system load is.

I assume 1.00 = 100% ? On the other hand, I have already seen values > 1!
I propose to change the system load to % (only integers, same as free RAM).

System load isn't a simple metric label, for a detailed description take a look at this:

It boils down to 1 x num cores = "ok", i.e 4 cores, a load of 4 you are ok.
