Description |
Measurement
Unit |
Interpretation |
| Usage |
The percentage of physical CPU used by this processor. |
Percent |
A very high value for this measure indicates excessive CPU utilization by the processor. The CPU utilization may be high because a few processes are consuming a lot of CPU, or because there are too many processes contending for a limited resource. |
| Max_limited |
Indicates the percentage of scheduling limit for this processor over a past minute.
|
Percent |
|
| Cpu_usage |
Indicates the CPU usage in MHz of this processor
|
Mhz |
|
| cpu_used |
Indicates the time for which this processor was used. |
Secs |
Compare the value of this measure across processors to know which processor was used for the maximum time. |
| core_util |
Indicates the CPU utilization of the corresponding core in this processor. |
Percent |
A core is utilized if either or both of its logical CPUs are utilized.
Compare the value of this measure across processors to know if any processor is over-utilizing its core.
This measure is reported only if hyper-threading is enabled. |
| utilization |
Indicates the CPU usage of this processor during the last measurement period. |
Percent |
utilization and Usage might be different due to power management technologies or hyper-threading. |
