Section utils - Debian Package: procmeter

 This is the older version of procmeter. You probably want to install the
 procmeter3 package instead of this one, unless you need features only
 present in this older version - namely, the ability to log to a file or
 syslog, and the ability to read data from named pipes.
 .
 ProcMeter displays constantly updating graphs of system information.
 Many different graphs are supported, including:
 .
  Total CPU usage, CPU used by user, niced, or system processes, CPU idle
  time, load average, number of context switches, number of processes. Amount
  of swapping, paging, swap in, page in, swap out, page out. Amount of disk
  accesses, reads, writes, or interrupts. MB of free, used, buffer, or cached
  memory. Amount of swap space used. Number of packets received or transmitted
  over local interfaces, ethernet, or slip/ppp. Number of collisions on
  ethernet, battery life stats.
 .
 As if all that wasn't enough, procmeter also allows you to write programs
 that communicate with procmeter and add new graphs to the display.
 .
 Procmeter can also log statistics to a file, and play it back later.
