+|test purpose  | To evaluate the CPU load performance of the IaaS. This test  |
+|              | case should be run in parallel to other Yardstick test cases |
+|              | and not run as a stand-alone test case.                      |
+|              |                                                              |
+|              | The purpose is also to be able to spot trends. Test results, |
+|              | graphs ans similar shall be stored for comparison reasons and|
+|              | product evolution understanding between different OPNFV      |
+|              | versions and/or configurations.                              |

+|              | There is are no additional configurations to be set for this |

+|              | (mpstat is not always part of a Linux distribution, hence it |
+|              | needs to be installed. It is part of the Yardstick Glance    |
+|              | image. However, if mpstat is not present the TC instead uses |
+|              | /proc/stats as source to produce "mpstat" output.            |

+|pre-test      | The test case image needs to be installed into Glance        |
