It uses the ps and vmstat commands to monitor process size and CPU and paging usage (we’ll discuss these in detail later in this article). When these metrics rise to a certain level it is a signal that an event is imminent, so then it’s time to run linperf.sh.
How is CPU usage related to CPU performance?
In other words, CPU usage can be an indicator of how much stress the processor is currently undergoing, and, if necessary, what capacity is still available. To calculate this, the general operating time is compared to the actual performance duration.
What can I do if my CPU usage is too high?
