Here is my server's CPU Usage:
Over the past fifteen minutes, the CPU has been heavily loaded.
15 minute CPU load average is 8.66
The processor is currently 40 degrees Celsius.
The system has been running for 1 day, 19 hours, and 55 minutes.
My questions:
Should I worry about this, or I have to take any action immediately ?
What max temperature can a CPU of RaQ4r stand for?
When a CPU is heavily loaded, what and how should I do to prevent it from being damaged? Is reboot the server suitable ?

Your info is not enough for me to give some comment.
Run "top" command and show us like the following data.
4:39am up 13:36, 25 users, load average: 0.72, 0.54, 0.55
99 processes: 98 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 2.8% user, 1.8% system, 0.0% nice, 95.3% idle
Mem: 257844K av, 251468K used, 6376K free, 97532K shrd, 102684K buff
Swap: 128484K av, 5732K used, 122752K free 82056K cached
PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT LIB %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND

3 root 0 0 0 0 0 SW 0 0.0 0.0 0:00 kpiod
Generally I would keep load average under 1.50

I think it is OK now.
