RPi Slicing Benchmarks
CPU Throttling:
Percentage-based CPU throttling, with lower percentages indicating throttling, ranging from 1% to 400%. A percentage of 400% indicates that the throttle is disabled.
Limiting the CPU usage helps prevent the Raspberry Pi from overheating, especially when slicing without a Pi cooling fan.
| Model | Profile | CPU Throttle | Time | Warning Message | Cooling Fan / Heat Sink |

The Pi should be around 50c before performing a benchmark. Use the following command to determine temperature before benchmark:
