# Server Statistics

The Client Portal displays real-time resource usage for your VPS through live gauges and a bandwidth graph. Use these to monitor server health and identify when an upgrade may be needed.

## Resource Gauges

| Gauge | What It Shows |
| - | - |
| **CPU** | Percentage of allocated CPU cores currently in use |
| **Memory** | RAM consumption relative to your plan's allocation |
| **Disk** | Storage used versus your plan's disk allocation |
| **Bandwidth** | Data transfer used during the current billing period |

## Interpreting the Gauges

| Metric | Normal | Worth Monitoring | Action Needed |
| - | - | - | - |
| CPU | Under 50% | 50–80% sustained | Above 80% sustained |
| Memory | Varies | Swap usage appearing | Constant swap usage |
| Disk | Under 70% | 70–85% | Above 85% |
| Bandwidth | Under 60% | 60–80% | Above 80% |

> [!NOTE]
>
> Linux uses available memory for disk caching, so memory usage appearing high is normal. The concern is when swap usage is significant, which indicates genuine memory pressure.

## Bandwidth Graph

Below the gauges, a bandwidth graph visualises inbound and outbound traffic over time. This helps identify traffic spikes, peak usage periods, and usage trends across your billing period.

> [!TIP]
>
> If any gauge is consistently in the action-needed range, consider upgrading your plan. See [Upgrading Your VPS](/vps/billing/upgrading).
