Hi!
Can there be any other operations taking CPU then Interactive and Background Operations?
In the picture below from the Premium capacity utilization and metrics app, total use of CPU is 57,66% but Interactive Operation is 30,59% and Background Operations 3,48% wich only sum up to 34,07%.
Is operations from Analyze in Excel not registered as a Interactive operation?

Hi @Anonymous ,
I know what the visual shows and how i works. My question is why the total CPU usage of the timpoint in my picture don´t sum up to same figure as Interactive Operation + Background Operations?
Is it beacause operations from Analyze in Excel is not registered as a Interactive operation? Or what other operations is not visible in Interactive Operation or Background Operations?
Regards
Fredrik
