| PackageDescription | statistics collection and monitoring daemon
collectd is a small daemon which collects system information periodically and
provides mechanisms to monitor and store the values in a variety of ways. It
is written in C for performance. Since the daemon doesn't need to startup
every time it wants to update the values it's very fast and easy on the
system. Also, the statistics are very fine grained since the files are updated
every 10 seconds.
.
