Good thing I saw this thread, I was panicking about the baseline changing unexpectedly in my dashboards. I have a question regarding these changes; in theory, at a 100% quota the baseline should be 6.25%, but since the quotas are shared between a Machine’s vCPUs, on a shared-cpu-8x, shouldn’t the baseline be 50% (40ms per 80ms period). The reason I ask is because I saw 6.25% across my app during the 100% period (which makes sense if it was a shared-cpu-1x), but even outside that period, I have been seeing 29.7% as the baseline.

Apologies if I am understanding all of this wrong. I just migrated some production applications over the last week, and I am trying to optimize them to run properly here.
