Let me rephrase it then: a well-utilized Tor node _can_ max out CPU.

I have two guard/middle nodes with maxed out cores. CPU is actually
their bottleneck. They have high consensus weight and get a lot of use
though.

My point was just that if a VPS provider has a policy against software
that maxes out CPU, Tor could cause that condition. Whether or not a
provider would actually enforce this against a Tor node is another
question. I haven't heard of it happening but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
