      Problem

      Wildfly 10's default load metric changed from busyness to cpu. Although otherwise fine, this change has a one major drawback: It doesn't work on Windows JDKs: MODCLUSTER-234. This fact has been known and acknowledged since 2011.

      <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:modcluster:2.0">
    <mod-cluster-config advertise-socket="modcluster" connector="ajp">
        <dynamic-load-provider>
            <load-metric type="cpu"/>
        </dynamic-load-provider>
    </mod-cluster-config>
</subsystem>

      Instead of a valid Load value, subsystem returns 0 and prints: MODCLUSTER000045: AverageSystemLoadMetric is not supported on this system and will be disabled.

      Example

      C:\Users\Administrator>groovy https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Karm/be36292ae52ded419b46/raw/addd6abff5e0d63ed1ec9bee5f23e7106ea12cac/SystemLoadAverage.goovy
load: -1.0
avail. processors: 4

load: 0.67
avail. processors: 4

      Call to action

      IMHO, this is a Major user experience failure, the default should provide meaningful values on all major platforms.
