Super common though. Everyone from Hetzner to AWS does this, unless you specifically pay for full allocation, which is typically ~2x the price.

Chances are you are using systems that do this and you haven't even noticed.

Tweeted Sep 21, 2010, might still be true for EC2 VMs though.

There's the 't' series of instances that offer burstable CPU. AFAIK still 1:1 on memory though, and there's models that allow you to pay to stay un-throttled when using t family instances vs. getting throttled when out of burst credits.
