Isn&#x27;t the calculation (assuming (for simplicity) one CPU, running at 100% only on application load)<p>60 requests&#x2F;sec =&gt; each request takes 1&#x2F;60s CPU-second == 16.6ms of CPU time to process? (This is time-on-cpu, and doesn&#x27;t include time-waiting-for-cpu. I think time-on-cpu is the number you want if you&#x27;re looking at optimising your codebase)
