There's also this:
,----
| display-time-default-load-average is a variable defined in `time.el'.
| Its value is nil
| Original value was 0
|
| Documentation:
| Which load average value will be shown in the mode line.
| Almost every system can provide values of load for past 1 minute, past 5 or
| past 15 minutes. The default is to display 1 minute load average.
| The value can be one of:
|
| 0 => 1 minute load
| 1 => 5 minutes load
| 2 => 15 minutes load
|
| You can customize this variable.
`----
Setting it to `none' (i.e. nil) disables the load average display in the
mode line.
