Talk:Linux CPU utilization

From Rosetta Code

I think this task is pretty much ready to go... but as its the first task I've added to Rosetta Code, I'd like to get someone to review it first :) --Paul (talk) 09:49, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

OS specific task

I don't think OS specific tasks are a good idea. Does this really need to be OS specific?

For starters, /proc is not unique to Linux, although other OSes may provide other/better ways to get similar information (e.g. getloadavg(3)).

Some programming languages may provide OS agnostic routines/libraries to get similar information (which would be superior to grepping around in /proc/stat IMO).
