LXC loadavg

i have enabled this by add the -l Parameter. Shutdown all LXC's, edit /lib/systemd/system/lxcfs.service, restart lxcfs and startup the containers again. Seems to work but i have lots of messages in syslog:
Apr 20 10:47:42 proxmox lxcfs[20932]: bindings.c: 5478: refresh_load: Open proc_path failed in refresh_load.

Edit:
I think i found the Problem.
After looking at the bindings.c code i sea that every 5 seconds the values where reloaded in proc.
I have multiple lxc containers with screen sessions. In screnn hardline i display some useful infos, also loadavg :) and i reread loadavg every 5 seconds :)
I changed this to 7 seconds and the syslog message is gone.

Well... I run 40+ CTs using it since day one and so far i didn't had any problems. Which means i've tested it for longer time than elapsed between ZFS 8.x stable release and it's inclusion in proxmox :-)

Are there any news on it? Does it still work or is it maybe already somehow implemented in PVE?
 
It was more a thread bump to @oguz, but thank you for your feedback.
seems like it's working well for some users, but to be honest i don't see any reason to make it default still. it's rather easy to add the flag and it's a specific use case...
