Re: procmeters et alia for SMP kernels
This is interesting but I still don't know enough to tell how the
system is doing. And I still need a good suggestion about what I could run to test it out. I suppose I should be asking on the sunhelp list to
find out if a 0.11 difference in my Cpu Bogo's is meaningful.

This is neat, but right now only the Load monitor and the two bars
monitoring CPU usaage move - (I had some trouble with the color maps
so its not as clear as it should be.) The load monitor almost got up
to 1 once.
