-When renders take longer than expected, the worker dashboard can help determine if your instances are adequately sized for your workloads. While 100% vCPU utilization is normal for many renderers, consistently high memory usage near maximum capacity and elevated disk space utilization may indicate that your instances are under-provisioned. In such cases, upgrading your fleet's instance configuration can reduce render errors and significantly improve render times. However, it's important to continue monitoring worker performance after upgrading to ensure you've found the optimal balance - upgrading too aggressively can lead to unnecessary costs through over-provisioning.

While 100% vCPU utilization is normal for many renderers, consistently high memory usage near maximum capacity and elevated disk space utilization may indicate that your instances are under-provisioned. For GPU-accelerated workloads, consistently high GPU utilization might also indicate that you need additional GPU capacity.
