Do you have CPU resource quotas? On all our plans, CPU is allocated as fair-share, which means you are able to burst up to the entire capacity of the server if nobody else is using the CPU. However, we reserve the right to throttle your CPU quota if your usage causes a disruption to other clients on the same machine as you or causes a disruption to the stability of the host system. Also note that due to the nature of fair share CPU usage programs designed to saturate the CPU, such as BOINC, Distributed.net, Crypto Coin Mining, and other similar programs, are forbidden on this service.
