This is very cool. :-) How are you currently extracting the information? One of the things I've wanted to do for a while is make sure all this sort of thing is exposed via snmpd so that the information can be gathered easily across a large number of hosts (say, 10,000). > BTW, I'm having serious issues with a machine with very big > directories, and I've been playing with the dirhash configuration, > setting up a very big cache.

There's also a lot of interesting information to be had from vmstat -z and vmstat -m in terms of tracking system resource use. It would be neat to have interrupt rates classified by source, so that the regularity of clock interrupts was visible against the variation in things like disk and network interrupts.
