Allowed CPU usage has been increased!

Our constant efforts continue with the improvements of the web hosting services that we offer. The allowed CPU usage of each and every hosting account has been vastly increased.

The CPU usage stands for the average server load generated by your scripts during a specific time period - an hour, an entire day or a whole month, and is estimated by comparing your CPU time to the total CPU time (100%), which is assumed to be 34560 seconds.

You should often check this value in order to comply with the maximum allowed CPU usage for your particular account type.

The allowed CPU usage has been increased from 3% to 4.5%. We believe that the new value will give you more freedom when you host high CPU consuming applications such as blogs, forums, cms etc. However, you should always check if there are any new versions or security updates for your applications. Usually, the new versions are more optimized than the old ones in terms of resource usage.
