CPU Throttling even when the container does not reach its CPU Limit
Issue
- Pods running with CPU limits CPU throttling despite the CPU limit is not hit.
- The default Grafana dashboard shows CPU throttling even though CPU usage does not touch its limit.
- We could see CPU throttling even though we are running an updated kernel as mentioned in the Red Hat Knowledge Base 5285071
