  <p>last 6 hours of a python scripts i'm running and it's cpu usage, it's obviously running for less than %2 of the cpu for most of it's time, but there's a small spike, should i care about the spike? and also, how much should my cpu usage be max before i upgrade? if a script i'm running is using 50-60% of the cpu most of the i assume i'm safe, or what's the max before you upgrade?</p>
