Hello, I’m new to Digital Ocean and I want to take out some doubts before buying some plan. Wish to know if it has CPU Usage and memory limited to 25% as other hosts or how this works.

The problem is that i can’t find what is making our server max out processor. we have a simple wordpress and teamspeak
Is the throttling temporary if you’re using 100% for a couple of hours or permanent for the droplet? If not, how long does it take to reset the throttle? Is there any way to see the throttling status?
We do not set a cap on CPU usage by default but we do monitor for droplets doing a consistent 100% CPU and may CPU limit droplets displaying this behavior. Since each droplet shares physical hardware with other droplets, constant 100% CPU use degrades the service quality for other users on the same node.
