Are these virtual machines? You didn't state so previously. Running 2.6.18 as a VM guest on these machines may also be part of the incorrect load reporting problem. If so, run the data collector daemon inside the hypervisor itself so you get actual load figures. You'll never get accurate performance metrics for a whole box from a kernel/daemon inside a VM guest.
Nope, all on the bare metal in our own datacentre.
I'll let you know how the HT switchoff goes.
