Admittedly, poking around. This is a public web/mail/cvs server, so
there is some bit of activity on it. But its a noble cause, I figure I
can prepare on this box to become familiar with system monitoring tools
and some things I can do to squeeze a couple % more performance gain
out. Maybe later I can apply it to real-world problems, mm?
