Perhaps it's worth adding that the output of that script corresponds roughly to the output of the munin "cpu" plugin, and that I've also written an OpenVZ-specific version which gives a breakdown by virtual machine as well.... If you'd prefer the option of looking at graphs instead, that might be worth checking them both out. Screenshots follow: http://exchange.munin-monitoring.org/plugins/openvzcpu/details and http://www.google.com/images?q=munin+cpu The cpu plugin comes with munin (on debian, ubuntu etc. just "aptitude install munin munin-node") - you have to manually download and install the plugin which I wrote from the above link....
