Regardless of the number of dedicated CPU cores a VPS plan has, our CPU Burst technology allows it to use at least 8 CPU cores in order to speed up the execution of all tasks. If the server exceeds its CPU usage quota within a two-hour window (the quota depends on the number of dedicated CPU cores), the system automatically reverts the number of CPU cores back to the number allowed for the current VPS plan.
The CPU usage of the VPS is checked every two hours, and if the server is below its CPU usage quota, the system will automatically enable CPU Burst for it again, giving it more CPU cores at least for the next two hours.
Basically, in times when the CPU cores available on the server are not fully utilized and there is idle CPU power we can give you as CPU Burst, we do it and we don't charge you extra for the additional CPU cores. And even when the CPU usage of your VPS does not allow it to use CPU Burst, it still gets all dedicated CPU cores that are included in the plan.
