Idle system having high load average #76

Hi OrangePi team,

I am compiling a full Linux Image and loading it on a board with some extra Kernel Modules (Ceph and RBD). It's fresh install and has no software installed on it. Not even an update. Can you guys tell me why am I seeing a load average of 1.0 and higher all the time? and there are hundreds of processes for zswap.

orangepi@orangepi3b:~$ uptime
 00:58:32 up 47 min,  3 users,  load average: 1.02, 1.01, 1.00

I don't have this issue on an OrangePi 5B or 5Plus with the same kernel modules self-compiled.

It's a simple Ubuntu Server Jammy.

orangepi@orangepi3b:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Release:    22.04

orangepi@orangepi3b:~$ uptime

I have even tried turning off swap. To no avail. Would really appreciate any help
