I'd like to know what will be the future of procfs on FreeBSD. Will it
provide more information about the system and the processes like it does
on Linux, or will I have to keep using kernel calls like the kvm_
functions? This question raises everytime I port a Linux application that
uses procfs to gain some pieces of system level information.
P.S.: A month ago or more I asked for on application which tracks the
cpuload the same way that top does, but its source code is much simpler so
I can learn how to do it. Finally I found that program, it's called
iostat.

Sebestyen Zoltan It all seems so stupid,
it makes me want to give up.
szoli@digo.inf..elte.hu But why should I give up,
when it all seems so stupid?
