You are looking at the software, but how’s the hardware?
How old is the server? Could the thermal paste be old and dried up? Is the cooling fan working?
A CPU with bad cooling can still run, up to a threshold and then it will throttle itself to avoid going over, but since the cooling sucks just being on will keep it there.
