CPU usage seems off

[savikko]

Hi!

Starting the container, it connects successfully to supabase instance but it seems that CPU usage is not telling what it should tell:

So it seems to spike to 100% but that does not really happen, comparing to load:

Also, sometimes "basic cpu" goes to minus something:

It's not at 100% it's idle, the problem is before on previous version the value where constant and not missing some point as you can see there is some 0 point

@riderx I Got the same problem (sometimes "basic cpu" goes to minus something),can you tell me how to resolve it? thank you so much

[riderx]

I don’t have a way to resolve it yet, but maybe i can ask on X

Hi folks - just want to confirm some data points.

Is this running on Fly.io, or a dockerized setup? We have a theory that network latency might play a role in the discrepancies which are displayed - does reducing the scrape config to 45s down from 60s alleviate this?

[riderx]

@pcnc i changed it and did fly deploy and no better, updated at 13:04

honestly i'm not sure the config was update properly, i just don't want to loose all past data by deleting all

[riderx]

After a while i realized it did improve a bit, now the chart almost not stay at 0

[pcnc]

I see, thank you!
We've managed to reproduce the behaviour and are actively looking into this

Note that this does not happen when self-hosting/using via docker. I self host grafana and prometheus. Using the default dashboard, the metrics look good when querying with a 60s refresh:

Also it was not happening in FLY.io last year, then with one update this started to happen

This could also be scraping options configured to scrape more often. Docs on the Supabase site have been updated, as well as the README in this repo.
Let us know if it is still causing issues!

This still seems to be an issue for me with the 5-minute and 30-minute timers. Before it was showing 100 usage, and then 30 minutes later when I came back to it, now it shows -77.2. There's no consistency here, and just looks very inaccurate when I compared it to the actual Supabase report.

I am hosting this on my local network and scraping the metrics with Prometheus and the dashboard is on Grafana.

Hi @shreyashguptas

This should be fixed with #45 and #43 as the latest versions have been deployed and the dashboard has been updated. When they are both on main, please try again and let us know!

[riderx]

i pulled the last version, why all deployment option have been removed from the readme ?

[encima]

Hey @riderx
We have updated the README to give the options for self-hosting this and call out integrations.
More detailed instructions are in our Metrics docs

We found some users running this in Fly (or other providers) in Production so we removed those instructions to prevent that behaviour.

This repo is for the distribution of the dashboard, showcasing the metrics endpoint and providing a quick, runnable example but it is not for production use.

If you have ideas on how this could be improved and still made clear, let us know!
