When CPU gets overloaded?

When a CPU gets overloaded, it experiences high utilization, leading to slower processing speeds and decreased system performance. This can result in applications freezing or crashing, increased latency in response times, and overall system instability. To alleviate the overload, users can close non-essential applications, upgrade hardware, or optimize software to better manage CPU resources. Regular monitoring and maintenance can also help prevent CPU overload in the first place.
