However, I think that "CPU hungry didn't talk a bulls**t and was right from his point of view. Tom's 99.99999999999% of peak CPU usage is great from technical point of view, but from productional, processing or financial point of view is better to stick on 60 - 90% depending on application, organization and other factors.
