No I'm afraid not. The lcpu% cant estimate accurately the cpu% used by the
load while the kernel is actually being compiled as the load starts before
ther kernel compilation and ends after it. This means that lcpu% will always
overestimate the loads' cpu%. I haven't found a workaround for this... yet
