RTB Dedicated Hosting Service - Service Closing

It's more for identifying when you're using a large amount of CPU rather than just for knowing how much you're using.

Why are you making a huge fuss about it instead of simply showing us the damn value?
What's so special about cpu usage that you do everything to not give us any info about it?

You're given the percentage of a 3.4GHz core that you BL server is using, the value isn't been hidden and is shown very clearly on the graph.

You should probably be given the processor frequency (it's 3.40 GHz), but the percentage is really what belongs on the graph.

I don't understand why this is such an issue.

[Zeblote]

Wait what just happened - the panel updated while I was viewing it and suddenly shows cpu usage..?

[Kalphiter]

I don't understand why this is such an issue.

All that needs to be done is noting the frequency on that page.

What is the permission level for the Activity Stream?

You're given the percentage of a 3.4GHz core that you BL server is using, the value isn't been hidden and is shown very clearly on the graph.

The problem is that the percentage is rounded down. Have it display a percentage to the tenths decimal place.

[Rub]

I still maintain that knowing the exact percentage CPU is a unneeded metric - you pay us to worry about you using too much CPU and to monitor your server 24/7, all you need to be concerned about is when it's clearly high as a result of a poorly written addon.

[Ephialtes]

CPU is already recorded to the tenths decimal place and I can assure you it's still 0.00. Most kinds of CPU monitoring will give you a % - look at your task manager in Windows or top on Linux/OSX. It's always a percent because that's what makes the most sense.

[Kalphiter]

Is it out of 25% or 100%?

[Ephialtes]

100% -  it measures your use of the core your server is running on.

[Rub]

Perhaps we should take the metric off the graph and just integrate a high CPU alert into the activity stream and notification space? It seems the concept of a semi-managed service where you don't really need to worry too much about resource usage is a difficult concept to grasp, taking away exact CPU usage would simplify everything and cause less confusion I think.

Thoughts on that idea people?

Solution: keep them on graphs, but make it seperate
