SoftIRQ % is a pretty good indicator of how busy the radio is. You can
see that in "top" on the radio.

CPU is largely unrelated to what the radio is doing.

Radio utilization or duty cycle meters
You can get a CPU load metric from UBNT radios (example below).

I want to see utilization or duty cycle meters. Tell me how busy
the AP is so I know how much more can fit... and break down into
different categories why it's busy. TX, Rx, retransmit, overhead,
MCS 15, MCS 0, which stations are using what percent, etc.
I'd say that knowing how busy the radio is is more important than
knowing how many bits are flowing through it.
