But is average utilisation the right metric? The work day is only like 8-10 hours, I would expect many corporate infrastructures to be only active during that period. Plus you don't size your infrastructure to a typical workload, you size it to be able to accommodate higher than usual peak workload otherwise you will be down at the busiest period.
