If you would like to auto calculate CPU load based on cores, there is a
script posted to xymonton.org that can do that:

Yes, a little self promotion as I wrote it, but its working well in our
environment and should do the trick for what you are trying to do.

Personally, I'd say that your warn and panic levels should be set to let
you know when something abnormal is happening, rather than trying to
calculate based on cores.  When you have a couple of weeks of cpu load data
in the graphs, you should be able to see the load average your server
normally runs at.  Set the warning level a bit above that so you get a
warning if some process starts hammering the cpu.  That'll tell you
something unexpected is starting.  Set the panic level somewhat higher.
