Testing it on my desktop the values are close enough to a similar script I once wrote, but conky and htop think it's only half that. Why that is, I have no idea.
Also see here.

won't this keep CPU busy?
An improvement would be to write something that sleeps when screen is off.
I think that requires compiled program that uses MCE. At that point it's better to make a widget.

CPU use is sourced from /proc/stat https://www.linuxhowtos.org/System/procstat.htm
I would be happy to hear your thoughts on this.
