Name

====

`maloadmon` -- Display load average figures and uptimes continuously.

Synopsis

========

	maloadmon [delay_sec]

Description

===========

The Ma_Sys.ma load monitor uses terminal colors to indicate different load

averages over time. By default, it prints one triplet every minute. Once the

screen is full, a line indicating the current uptime is printed.

It is intended to be used in case of long-running computations to check that

if the machine is evenly loaded or as expected. The non-interactive and

lightweight design makes this program also a good choice for a monitor to run

on one of the virtual terminals.

Note that while it captures certain workloads, load averages are not suited

as a comprehensive monitoring facility.

`delay_sec`

:   Configures the delay between updates (default: 60sec).

Order of colors is as follows (t is for “thin”):

gray < tblue < blue < tcyan < cyan < tyellow < yellow < tmangentha < mangentha

< tred < red

Compilation

===========

	$ ant
