Understanding the 0%-100% CPU Usage Metric  Asked by: 2013-09-14
2:05 am EST General Server Setup Hi Support,   For the 24 hour
graph, why does it always grow upwards for the 24 hour period?
and then drop back down on a really steep decline at 12 midnight
UTC. The sample graph in this article is a very good example as
to what is happening in my account on a regular basis. Given the
very little amount of traffic I get I am wondering about the
"Type of Metric" that is being calculated for the Y axis (the
0-100%). It does seem to be a "cumulative addition of the prior
hours percentage added to the next". This does not make sense
when I review the raw access logs and there has been only two or
three visitors in a that hour.  I would expect that the 24 hour
graph should drop to approx 20% when there is nothing really
going on on the web site; so I'm struggling to understand how
the graph always seems to have a steady incline when the demand
on the account on an hour-by-hour basis does NOT reflect a
steady incline
