CPU use is irrelevant to most internet servers.
If that's the case, then why aren't they using lower power, lower performance CPUs? If their servers are only running at 10% CPU load, then maybe the CPU in their servers is significantly overpowered for their needs and they could get by with some less powerful CPUs in order to save power and money.
