In fact the latter part of the tests hit 400% (all of all cores) for one rust job a few minutes before it crashed. I can recall occasionally seeing figures like 102% on "normal" jobs, but I had assumed those were rounding errors. ĸen -- In my seventh decade astride this planet, and as my own cells degrade, there are some things I cannot do now: skydiving, marathon running, calculus.
