CPU currentLoad completly off on windows

[gltched-usr]

Describe the bug When calling the currentLoad() function the currentLoad value is completly off. I checked task manager and it says 42% load while the currentLoad value I get is ~6.134.

I understand that there can be a difference but it shouldn't be that much off.

To Reproduce Code I used:

setInterval(() => {
    getSystemInfo();
}, 1000) // tried also 5s, 10s, even 30s with same result

async function getSystemInfo() {
    try {
        const cpu = await si.currentLoad()
        //console.log(cpu)

        const cpuInfo = {
            cpuLoad: cpu.currentLoad
        };
        console.log(cpuInfo)
    } catch (error) {
        logger.error('Error:', error);
    }
}

Current Output

{ cpuLoad: 3.5504885993485344 }
{ cpuLoad: 2.9962546816479403 }
{ cpuLoad: 3.4767528284746883 }
{ cpuLoad: 3.116947884631369 }
{ cpuLoad: 3.8537064310260187 }
{ cpuLoad: 2.844856103208733 }
{ cpuLoad: 2.9877998174122333 }
{ cpuLoad: 6.137479541734861 }

@sebhildebrandt Do you have any updates on this? I found out that scaling the output with 9 or 10 provides way closer results (downside is sometimes this produces values above 100)

I am having the same problem
