Egad. Here I'm pondering the numbers and light load as I'm typing, and
my fingers (seemingly independent when mind wanders off) typed < 95% as
in not fully committed, instead of "light".

While I don't know the _exact_ figure for this, my hunch is that a
good ballpark figure is anything that is not a heavy load (less than
4, perhaps even lower, maybe <0.75 or <2?) and that is not a "niced"
load.
