How to limit CPU load below 10% on vps with debian wheezy?
I recently got a vps from hostrail with NAT ip and ipv6.
It is 256MB RAM and as per terms I should limit the CPU load below 10% with some bursts allowed.
I have configured a ghost blog on with with nginx reverse proxy.
I am able to use ipv6 with the help of Cloudflare DNS settings and indeed it was great experience.
Now, suddenly I saw my VPS was suspended because it was using 100% CPU.
A snap from feathur control panel was attached.
So, my concern is how to make sure my VPS is not suspended because of such unwanted CPU loads or is there anyway to restart process or vps in case of such high CPU load.
Just want something simple to run which can limit CPU load below 10%
Configuration Details:
VPS - OVZ - NAT - 256MB RAM 10G HDD - ipv6
Feathur control panel
Ghost Blog with Nginx
Debian Wheezy
Thanks for any good guide!

Err, by not using it perhaps?

Well, the solution is.. check out another VPS provider that will allow more then 10% cpu usage hint
Make sure your rsyslogd isn't hitting 100% all day long, as it's one of the most common ways i see.

^^ is a solution.
I've been using 'cpulimit' on my debian install for ffmpeg, might work for you. Use the 'top' command to see what's going on.
Thanks for reminding this. I had this problem with my xvmlabs vps , that time I fixed it.
Also, I observed that now after reboot things are working under limits.
could you please share a simple example
That would be nice. Is it PID dependent?
+1 for cpulimit.

+1 cpulimit
cpulimit --pid 12345 -l 10
cpulimit -l 10 programname
(-L 10)
don't forget to add the '-b' so it'll run in the background.
