    Description

      When using SystemMemoryUsageLoadMetric, mod_cluster prioritizes dispatching requests to a machine which are using system memory higher than other machines. This loadbalancing behaviour is odd.

      SystemMemoryUsageLoadMetric[1] returns wrong load metric. The SystemMemoryUsageLoadMetric#getLoad() should not return "free / total". It should return "(total - free) / total" (= usage / total ) like HeapMemoryUsageLoadMetric[2].
