Resource Usage
View your current and historical resource consumption.
Accessing Resource Usage
Navigate to Resource Usage in your End User Panel.
Current Usage
The current usage section shows your real-time resource consumption.
Metrics Displayed
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| CPU | Your web/application CPU usage percentage |
| DB CPU | Database CPU usage attributed to you |
| Total CPU | Combined CPU usage |
| RAM | Memory usage in MB |
| DB RAM | Database memory usage in MB |
| Total RAM | Combined memory usage |
| PIDs | Number of processes running |
| DB PIDs | Database processes count |
| IO Read | Disk read throughput (KB/s) |
| IO Write | Disk write throughput (KB/s) |
| EP | Entry Processes (current/limit) |
Your Resource Limits
Your effective limits are displayed based on:
- Custom limits set by administrator
- Your hosting plan limits
- Default system limits (fallback)
Understanding Limits
| Limit | Description |
|---|---|
| CPU Quota | Maximum CPU percentage you can use |
| Memory Max | Hard limit - processes may be killed if exceeded |
| Memory High | Soft limit - throttling begins here |
| IO Bandwidth | Maximum disk read/write speed |
| IOPS | Maximum disk operations per second |
| Entry Processes | Maximum concurrent connections/requests |
| Tasks Max | Maximum concurrent background tasks |
Historical Usage
View your usage over different time periods:
| Period | Description |
|---|---|
| 1h | Last hour |
| 6h | Last 6 hours |
| 24h | Last 24 hours |
| 7d | Last 7 days |
| 30d | Last 30 days |
Charts Display
- CPU usage over time
- Memory usage over time
- Disk I/O activity
- Process count history
Faults
If you exceed your resource limits, faults are recorded:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Time | When the fault occurred |
| Type | Resource type (CPU, RAM, IO, EP) |
| Value | Value that exceeded the limit |
| Limit | The limit that was exceeded |
Frequent Faults
If you see frequent faults, contact your administrator to request higher resource limits or optimize your application.
Understanding Resource Consumption
What Uses CPU?
- PHP scripts
- Database queries
- File processing
- Image manipulation
What Uses Memory?
- Web server processes
- PHP execution
- Database connections
- File caching
What Uses IO?
- Reading/writing files
- Database operations
- Log file writes
- Backup operations
Optimizing Resource Usage
Reduce CPU Usage
- Enable opcode caching (OPcache)
- Use CDN for static assets
- Optimize database queries
- Enable GZIP compression
Reduce Memory Usage
- Unload unused modules
- Close database connections when done
- Clear application caches regularly
- Use efficient data structures
Reduce IO Usage
- Use SSD for database storage
- Enable read-ahead caching
- Compress log files
- Schedule heavy IO during off-peak
