Hi Christian, I think to find the actual usage figures over time you would have to monitor the sessions locally on the SSVM, I can't see anything in the API to query this.
One way to determine this is to lower the secstorage.sessions.max figure and monitor how often a second SSVM is spawned. Also keep in mind you could increase the service offering for system VMs to increase the capacity the SSVM can handle, this could negate the requirement for multiple SSVM instances.
