That's correct.

Ideally the dom0 wouldn't show a high load average, ever.  If it does, then it 
is likely taking resources away from the other guests.  The dom0 instance is 
there to manage the hypervisor and provide driver backend services to the 
guests for disk, network, etc.  None of those things should require much CPU 
activity.
