Description: Percent idle
What is hardwarePrimaryCPU?
This value reports the percentage of time the device's primary CPU has spent idle, as an Integer32 percentage. Admins poll it to gauge processor load on the main CPU, since a consistently low idle percentage signals the device is nearing its processing capacity. For example, a value of 15 means the primary CPU is only 15% idle, or 85% busy, which would prompt an admin to investigate what traffic or process is driving the load.
