Is this normal? Because sometimes it consume high cpu usage. Please advice.

Thanks.

Hello,

Yes, it's normal.

You will have to monitor your server to find out the exact process which is using high CPU on your server.

if you are facing high load issues then I will suggest you please check : Troubleshooting high server loads on Linux servers
