NAME

tload - graphic representation of system load average

SYNOPSIS

tload [__-V__? [__-s__ ''scale''? __-d__ ''delay''? [''tty''?

DESCRIPTION

tload prints a graph of the current system load average to the specified tty (or the tty of the tload process if none is specified).

Options

The -s scale option allows a vertical scale to be specified for the display (in characters between graph ticks); thus, a smaller value represents a larger scale, and vice versa.

The -d delay sets the delay between graph updates in seconds.

FILES

/proc/loadavg load average information

SEE ALSO

ps(1), top(1), uptime(1), w(1)

BUGS

The -d delay option sets the time argument for an alarm(2); if -d 0 is specified, the alarm is set to 0, which will never send the SIGALRM and update the display.
