    Unless it's a multi-threaded/multi-processor system, then it gets tricker.

    Myself? I don't worry about load until it hits 5. Even on older systems (way older than before I started doing this stuff ), a system at 5 is pretty reasonable, and just indicates that the system is working.

    Much more than 5 and you're going to see issues

    Jesus Christ, guys! That fellow is on a VPS, not on a dedicated server. It is a SHARED environment and the cores are not dedicated to him. I do not want a neighbour like this on a VPS who permanently uses more than 1 full core.

    I completely agree, a load of 1-2 is nothing on a dedicated server. But that is not what we are talking about here.

    I took a look at the Ramnode AUP and it is indeed very clear concerning CPU usage and load:
    HARDWARE RESOURCE USAGE
    Client agrees not to run any processes on his or her VPS which create a CPU load above .9 on the VPS for an extended period of time or which cause a high CPU load on the host node for an extended period of time. In other words, client agrees not to use the equivalent of a full core for him or herself for an extended period of time. Disruptive CPU usage may result in a reboot, shutdown, and/or suspension of the VPS regardless of the time lapse involved.

    As Nick said your using 137% of one core so over a core.

    Yes you have 4 cores but I'm guessing it would be in small periods you could use all four cores. (Like in small bursts) However you are on a shared environment.

    That is an irc bot script. I had someone try it on my server. Didn't get very far. atomic rule set alerted me of the attempt. Check the http logs and you will find the request for it...

    So that why they mention core with each vps package ?

    if they are not allowing as mention in vps package,

    according to AUP they need to mention only 1 core with each vps package, but to get customer they mention 4 cores

    You have access to 4 cores, not 4 dedicated cores. We try to be flexible and allow people to burst like GNG-Zane indicated. That is typical VPS language. Some hosts are more lenient on how much they let users get away with.

    Did you find the load average went down after you removed that script / irc bot from your server? Have you looked for other malware? Running a free hosting service is always likely to attract abusers - much more so than a single website.

    Yes 4 core means 4*100.
    But in case of vps you never get dedicated cores , you get shared cores.
    And this is the reason why vps is cheaper then dedicated if you just compare the cores.

    In the perfect vps world, it does not matter how many cores you have, what matters is the your top command should never go above 1.
