I've always used SNMP/MRTG to capture and present system performance
information (NIC utilization, CPU load, memory load, paging, disk wait time,
etc.). These are "just OK" in my book. I find MRTG in particular finicky
and unnecessarily complex to set up. Not hard, just a lot of nuisances. I
know there must be better, widely available packages that aren't so heavy
they distort the numbers significantly or a hassle to install. I don't need
a lot of super features, just the basics of how is the system running and
what are the trends. So, what are all you cool kids out there (and
everyone else) using for this in modern times?
