Lukas Berk - Ubiquitous System Analysis with Performance Co-Pilot

Performance Co-Pilot is a highly adaptable and established toolkit for those interested in examining the details of system performance. Designed from the ground up to compliment existing system monitoring, PCP is gentle in its approach as your statistics gathering mechanism. Likewise, PCP developers understand; what's most important for the sysadmin/end-user to monitor, may not be known, or even available to the upstream community.
