  • Thank you. This is a dedicated server and we can afford to push it to the safe limits for %CPU utilization. I've read through the links that you've kindly provided. From my understanding, on a 96 core server with the application using 32 cores, can I assume that the maximum theoretical limit for %CPU is 3200% because it is computed over the total CPU time, or did I get it wrong? (I assume it is total because this metric is on par with the process_cpu_seconds_total metrics that we expose ) Thank you. Commented Jan 8, 2023 at 6:56
