[libvirt-users] Hypervisor load much greater than that of the guest

Hello,

I've got a situation where I have a couple of vm's running at 300+% cpu on the hypervisor:

 9893 qemu      20   0 13.0g 8.2g 4256 S 328.0  4.3  59793:17 qemu-kvm                                                               

Yet the load within the vm is in the regions of:

1.00, 1.02, 0.98

Everything is reporting OK on both the hypervisor & guest, guest is a qcow2 image on local storage. 

If anyone could point me in the right direction to start debugging this I'd be grateful.

Hypervisor: CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64
			qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.0.1.el6_4.9.x86_64
			libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.14.x86_64

Guest: CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64

Thanks in advance,
Damion.
