Hello all,

I received this from my nagios server and I'm trying to understand what it 
means.  Can someone please help me diagnose this or point me to 
docuementation that will describe what the "85, 90, 85, 90, 85, 90, 15" 
means below... also, I'm tring to find out why the percentages are so 
high.  My guess is that there were so many things waiting in queue that 
the percentages end up being that high.
