Not entirely sure what's going on with this; having rolled back to 3.0a7 
I'm still seeing the problem.

After a while the load does seem to go back to normal, so I'm assuming 
that its because there are between 10 and 15 python "programs" being 
loaded on boot.

Is there any way I can tell supervisord to take a pause between each 
program start?
