this loadavg value is a measurement how much work your two cpu cores
have to do. A value below 1 means that there is still room for more
calculations on them while no process has to wait. So, I think, this
could be a regression between version 4.3 to version 4.5. Depending on
how complex your calculation is, you should try to take it apart to
isolate the part that has slowed it down... or post the script or
something like that. I don't know of any other options that could help
here.
