procps is used to extract guest memory statistics, which the Tools then publish (ultimately) to the vmkernel on vSphere 4. Said stats are used in debugging/support instrumentation and may influence VMK memory management decisions. It doesn't provide anything useful to customers running under Workstation or Fusion. -- Ryan Beasley :: MTS, Guest Components - Applications :: VMware, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
