Viewing Agents Workload
TeamCity provides handy ways to estimate build agents efficiency and help you manage your system.
Load Statistics Matrix
The Matrix available at the Matrix tab on the Agents page provides you with a bird's eye view of the overall Build Agents workload for all finished builds during the time range you selected. By taking a look at the build configurations compatible with a particular agent, you can assign the build configuration to particular Build Agents and significantly lower the idle time. This helps you adjust the hardware resources usage more effectively and fill the discovered productivity gaps.
