Infrastructure monitoring
CPU monitoring
Usage, temperature, and core metrics.
Overview
CPU monitoring tracks processor usage across your servers. High CPU usage can indicate performance issues, runaway processes, or capacity problems.
CPU metrics
- Usage percentage: Current CPU utilization (0-100%)
- Load average: Average system load over 1, 5, and 15 minutes
- Core count: Number of CPU cores available
- Temperature: CPU temperature (where supported)
Typical values
| Usage | Status |
|---|---|
| 0-30% | Normal—plenty of headroom |
| 30-70% | Moderate—acceptable for production |
| 70-90% | High—consider scaling |
| 90-100% | Critical—immediate attention needed |
