You're averaging across all the CPUs to get a single figure for the 
instance, instead of a separate figure per CPU.  You're not averaging over 
time.

You're using irate(...) which uses the last two figures available for CPU 
usage.  I'd use rate(...[2m]) instead of irate(...[5m]) but they should 
give the same results when you have a 1 minute scrape interval.  Either of 
these will take the difference between node_cpu_seconds_total@now and 
node_cpu_seconds_total@1_minute_ago and use this to calculate the rate of 
CPU usage.

So what exactly is wrong with this query - in other words, what do you want 
that's different?
