I host charts of my node's system metrics at http://statoshi.info/#/dashboard/db/system-metrics
Note that the CPU spikes are abnormal as I'm making automated RPC calls to query the UTXO set.
My node's bandwidth usage chart can be found at http://statoshi.info/#/dashboard/file/default.json?panelId=1&fullscreen
