Yes, it is the main way to quickly assess VPP load, see https://fd.io/docs/vpp/master/troubleshooting/cpuusage.html#vpp-cpu-load My very crude rule-of-thumb looks like this (but your mileage may vary): - between 0 and 50: VPP is not working too hard - between 50 and 100: VPP is starting to be pushed hard - above 100: you'll probably experiment drops with bursts - 250+: you're dropping traffic Best ben
