The CPU rates are not accurate
I can't trust them :-(


The most obvious bug is when seeing it more than 100% which can't happen, nothing can give you more than 100% it is just wrong.


I would love to see accurate CPU usage percentage

Thank you @Tobi

Now I am more confused :lol:


I now understand the CPU unix load better
At last i understand why there are 3 numbers in the parenthesis there !

I am sure it could be presented in a better way in our dashboard (like in a graph), but this is obviously not a bug, maybe a feature request.


Well, i am a bit smarter now, thank you.

My Inhouse-Server with a CELERON 420 https://ark.intel.com/content/www/de/de ... z-fsb.html sometimes has a load over 200 percent.

If this happens occasionally this is not a big problem.
Only if you have constantly a load over 90% you should consider upgrading your server.
