> For those of you managing server infrastructure,

As a developer who has often had to look into problems and performance issues, instead of an infrastructure person, this is basically the bare minimum of what I want to see:

* CPU usage

* RAM breakdown by at least Used/Disk cache/Free

* Disk fullness (preferably in absolute numbers, percents get screwy when total size changes)

* Disk reads/writes

* Network reads/writes

And this is high on the list but not required:

* Number of open TCP connections, possibly broken down by state

* Used/free inodes (for relevant filesystems); we have actually used them up before (thanks npm)
