Table 35 maps the PRM groups to their respective identifiers in the graph. Note how each
group’s PRMID is used in its cpuTicksGot identifier. The development group comes in
with approximately 4500 ticks. The databases/order group converges on 3500 ticks,
while databases/inventory and mailserver come in at about 2000 and 1000 ticks,
respectively. OTHERS and PRM_SYS get the fewest ticks. The amount of idle CPU, represented
by cpuTicksGot.6, stays constant at 0.
