CPU status

Google bot crawl rate is every 2 seconds and it creates about 1.0-1.5 CPU load (average of 1 min) on a KVM host and a VM(web server) until the bot stops around 4AM. If you see the graph, there is not much traffic outgoing through Firewall's WAN interface RE0, less than 1Mbps most of the time. However when you see the graph of a web server's virtual BR0 interface, it is about 80Mbps most of the time(VM's outgoing interface).

I assume that bot traffic caused high CPU utilization but I don't understand how web server traffic is generated that much (80Mbps) and there is not much traffic on WAN interface. Feels like I made something wrong on the VM setting. Any help would be appreciated.

To be clarification this question

the user seems to had an understanding issue.

on Linux

  • is the load level 1 the utilization of one cpu core.
  • if you have 6,you can have a load level of 6.

This differs to windows,

  • where 100 percent is really the full usage of the CPU on all cores and threads available
