I actually have charts where the x-axis is time of day, the left hand y-axis is in %CPU utilization, and the right hand y-axis is in MIPS. I use the exact same formula that John does. Hey, it might not be technically correct to use MIPS, but it's something management understands (or thinks they do), makes them happy, and preserves my job. :-)
