I have 50 minutes of log from an otherwise idle instance running ubuntu-lucid-10.04-amd64-server-20100427.1 on aki-c8b258a1.
$ while read loadavg < /proc/loadavg && echo "$(date): ${loadavg}" && sleep 10 ; do : ; done
that shows highest load of 0.08 for a 1 minute period (the first field) and nothing over 0.02 for the 5 minute average.
This was showing much higher spikes than that on the default kernel associated with the ami.
The instance was launched with: ec2-run-instances --region us-east-1 --instance-type m1.large --kernel aki-c8b258a1 ami-fd4aa494
