+kSAR (GitHub) is a continuation of kSAR, a GUI for sysstat and acct
+
+It plots the graphs that are collected by sa/sar utilities from the
+sysstat and acct packages. This data collection is usually done
+with cron, and should be configured separately.
+
+I particular, the SlackBuild's author has the following in his
+crontab:
+
+```
+* * * * * /usr/lib64/sa/sa1 10 6 -S DISK
+0 0 * * * /usr/lib64/sa/sa1 --rotate
+```
+
+You need Java 8 or later to run this package. The slackbuild
+author uses zulu-openjdk11, but other versions might work.
