Your OneClickClaw dashboard displays four key server metrics: CPU usage, RAM usage, disk usage, and bandwidth. These numbers help you understand whether your AI agent is running smoothly and when you might need to take action.
CPU usage
CPU usage measures how much of your server's processing power is currently in use. Your AI agent consumes CPU cycles whenever it processes a message, runs background health checks, or manages channel connections.
Normal operation for most agents sits between 5% and 30%. Brief spikes during bursts of conversation are perfectly normal. If CPU usage stays above 80% for more than 30 minutes, your agent may respond slowly or drop messages. In that case, consider upgrading to a plan with more CPU cores.
RAM usage
RAM (memory) usage shows how much of your server's available memory is in use. The OpenClaw process, the operating system, and any active conversations all consume memory. Most agents operate comfortably between 30% and 60%.
If RAM usage climbs above 85%, your server may start using disk space as temporary memory (called swap), which slows everything down. If it consistently exceeds 85%, upgrading to a plan with more RAM resolves the issue.
Disk usage
Disk usage shows how much of your server's NVMe SSD storage is occupied. Your disk stores the operating system, the OpenClaw installation, agent memory files, conversation logs, and system logs. A freshly deployed server typically uses 20% to 30%.
Disk usage grows gradually as conversation history and agent memory accumulate. OneClickClaw automatically rotates system logs to prevent runaway growth. If disk usage exceeds 80%, review whether old data can be cleaned up. Contact support if it reaches 95% or above.
Bandwidth
Bandwidth measures the data your server sends and receives over the network. The main consumers are API calls to your AI provider (such as Anthropic or OpenAI) and incoming/outgoing messages on your connected channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord). Normal usage is well within the limits of every plan.

Health ranges at a glance
| Metric | Healthy | Warning | Critical |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | Under 30% | 30% – 80% | Above 80% sustained |
| RAM | Under 60% | 60% – 85% | Above 85% sustained |
| Disk | Under 70% | 70% – 80% | Above 80% |
| Bandwidth | Under 50% of plan limit | 50% – 80% | Above 80% |
Tip
Brief spikes in CPU or RAM during busy periods are normal and nothing to worry about. Only sustained high usage (more than 30 minutes) indicates a potential problem.
Note
If you see consistently high CPU or RAM usage, see the troubleshooting guide: High CPU/RAM Usage.
