Real-Time CPU and Memory Insights for Harness CI Cloud Builds | Harness Blog
When a CI pipeline runs on cloud infrastructure, the build machine is ephemeral. It spins up, executes your build, and disappears. During that window, you have zero visibility into how much CPU and memory your pipeline actually consumes. This blind spot creates real problems. Teams over-provision VMs "just in case," wasting compute spend. Others under-provision and deal with silent OOM-kills or CPU throttling — the only clue being a cryptic exit code 137.
