What it shows
CPU average load in Vezha is metric based cpu.total_pct: the agent calculates the average load across all cores and outputs it in a single telemetry stream. This is a quick indicator of whether the node has enough computing resources in general.
Why it matters
When the value stays high for a long time, the command does not see a one-time spike, but a systemic CPU shortage. This is useful for planning capacity, correctly distributing the load between servers, and checking the effect of optimizations.
An example from practice
After the launch of the nightly import, the average load increased steadily from 45% to 88%. The team moved part of the tasks to a separate node, and the morning delays in the API disappeared without emergency scaling.
