Examining CPU statistics

You can examine a server’s server's activity over time to confirm that CPU usage falls within a normal range. A continually high level of CPU usage may indicate that the application needs improvement or more processes should be added to the machine to enhance performance. A low CPU usage indicates that the system is not using all the machine’s processing power. If you conclude that high CPU usage is the result of an activity in the SAP system, open the Activity tab to continue your analysis of the application’s application's performance.
