+nmon (Nigel's performance MONitor)
+
+This systems administrator, tuner, benchmark tool gives you a huge
+amount of important performance information in one go. It can output
+the data in different ways.
+You can display the CPU, memory, network, disks (mini graphs or numbers),
+file systems, NFS, top processes, resources. Save the data to a comma
+separated file for analysis and longer term data capture. Directly put
+your data into rrd database.
+
+Using export NMON=$(parms) you can change the default view.
