Awesome!
Could we, with another add-on patch, further compress the first half of
the output as well?
Advanced output like this would be really cool:

Note the typographical details I added:
- I added an extra space after 'CPUs:' to make the table stand out
better from far away
- Removed the 'OK' - it really does not add any more information than
the newline already does
- Changed the 'Brought up' message to be more consistent with the prior
messages.
- Added nodes count to the 'Booted up' line. Since we count nodes and
CPUs, we might as well want to demonstrate our superior counting
skills and print out both.
- The 'node' counting uses the new num_digits() function - this was very
easy to implement in my mockup ;-)
- Note the singular spelling of 'node' in the 1-node case. Again this
was easy in the mockup!
Thanks,
Ingo
