Get the Recent CPU Load
Value
A named numeric vector with three elements 1min
, 5min
, and
15min
with non-negative values.
These values represent estimates of the CPU load during the last minute,
the last five minutes, and the last fifteen minutes [1].
An idle system have values close to zero, and a heavily loaded system
have values near parallel::detectCores()
.
If they are unknown, missing values are returned.
