> Anyone knows what the "CPU(cores)" means exactly (e.g. 83m)? What's that m unit?

Not sure of the unit, but it generally means 83% of a single CPU's processing power. My understanding is that this is not strictly enforced, it's just a tool for Kubernetes to schedule pods and to make sure no set of pods add up to more than 100m on any CPU.



I actually just found the relevant Kubernetes documentation [0]. It stands for "millicores", so 83m would be 8.3% of a single CPU.
