[Orca-users] Re: Mimicking ORCA data gathering on IBM AIX

[Blair Zajac]

In addition, a platform independent measurement tool would be really
useful and could could be built on top of either the platform
independent libgtop library, at

http://home-of-linux.org/gnome/libgtop/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/libgtop-devel-list/

or PCP at

http://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp/

I'm hoping somebody will write some code that will do this :)

Blair
