How reliable is CPU_SEC for capacity planning? Is it reliable between different servers? There are cases where I may have dev,test environment and get asked for an estimate of CPUs needed for prod. If I run tests with what we think is a percentage of peak load in a test environment (since test will usually have less horsepower than a prod environment) can I spreadsheet that and project it to a prod environment ?

Do you have an estimate for how much cpu power I need to reserve in the spreadsheet just for background processes? There are also cases where people want to consolidate many DBs to 1 Server and estimating this can be tricky.

I tend to do alot of guessing. wondering if anyone has any half way decent spreadsheet formulas?
