> Can I get a review of this documentation update to clarify the usage of GetCpuLoad (and inherently deprecated GetSystemCpuLoad) and GetProcessCpuLoad.
>
> Calling either of these methods in quick succession can lead to unrepresentative results due to too few data points.
>
> This behavior is easy to reproduce on at least Linux (Windows implementation enforces a 500 ticks duration); when calling GetCpuLoad repeatedly CPU load values of either 0, 0.5, or 1 will be returned.
>
> double cpuLoad1 = getCpuLoad();
> double cpuLoad2 = getCpuLoad(); // not enough ticks has passed to give representative values
>
> Worth noting is that this holds true even if getSystemCpuLoad() is called.
>
> double cpuLoad1 = getCpuLoad();
> double cpuLoad2 = getSystemCpuLoad(); // not enough ticks has passed to give representative values, since getSystemCpuLoad effectively calls getCpuLoad.
