Hi Ingvar,
I was wondering if the CPU monitor might be intended to monitor the number of CPUs on a system. I'm looking at a Ganglia monitoring webpage right now and one of the things they report is the total number of CPUs a given host or group of hosts has.
Could this be what it is for?
If so, anyone know how to get this information from a host that doesn't have something like /proc/cpuinfo ? Specifically, I'm thinking my Mac laptop (which I do some bogus monitoring of for testing/hacking purposes).
Whaddya think?, Jim

Hi Ingvar,
What is the CPU monitor supposed to do? I can't find a PROCESS method for it. :P :) I'd be happy to try to write such a method if only I could grok what you're thinking here. :)
I think it was supposed to log in and snag the system load. I also thought it was all written. It isn't, though.
Er, no, there's a load-monitor class. I am confused now. Maybe it was something intended for (say) routers, switches and windows machines? Because, you know, load and cpu utilisation aren't identical.
Not that I could find a PROCESS method for load-monitors either.
