For completeness, there is this thread (1) where we already decided that sigar is OK to be removed completely.
I think that OSHI is way better lib to have, I am +1 on this proposal. Currently the deal seems to be that this will go just to trunk.

OSHI is an MIT licensed library that provides information about the underlying OS much like Sigar did. The change adds a dependency on oshi-core at the following coordinates: <groupId>com.github.oshi</groupId> <artifactId>oshi-core</artifactId> <version>6.4.6</version> In addition to switching to a supported library, this change will reduce the size of the package as the native Sigar libraries are removed. Are there objections to making this switch and adding a new dependency?
