Ha! Who needs vCPUs when you can just crank up the clock speed on the host? Bet that'll do the trick. Oh, wait, that's not how it works? Dang, back to the drawing board.

I agree with Clarinda, but I'd also throw in Host CPU usage. Gotta make sure the host can handle the additional vCPUs, you know? Otherwise, it's just going to be a whole lot of spinning and no real performance boost.

VM CPU Usage and VM CPU Ready Time are definitely the metrics to look at. I mean, it's right there in the question - the performance issues are within the VM, so those are the obvious choices.

I agree with Evangelina. Those metrics will help us determine if adding more vCPUs is necessary.

I think we should analyze VM CPU Usage and VM CPU Ready Time.
