We would like to have some extra features to the recently release Premium Capacity Monitoring App. Would it be possible to add the dataset size and the consumed capacity per dataset, instead of just the total?

Hey Valerie, Here is the release blog post ( version 1.9 and latest version is 1.10.1.2) about us adding dataset size in memory. Reinstall the latest version of the app and try it!

RE: Add metrics to Premium Capacity Monitoring App

For me it all comes down to knowing 1) Who's involved in the >80 CPU utilization peeks, and 2) What they all consumed during that time.
Having most of my users in the European and America time zones, I couldn't care less about a single Australian user/dataset consuming all the resources when all the rest of us is sleeping, but I do care about those users/datasets that maybe consume some percentage during peek hours, these are the once forcing us to upgrade the capacity plan
