neat! two comments:
- /proc/meminfo is linux specific and less general. perhaps you could write
something with "free" or some other generic utility instead?
- your suggestion isn't mutually exclusive from the previous one i made. it
could be made optional to specify a timeout value, and if not specified, use
the heuristic you provide, which would be the default.
but in any event, i think it's a great idea. monty: you think this is
something mysql.com would be interested in?
