description

tload prints a graph of the current system load average to the specified tty (or the tty of the tload process if none is specified).

options

-s, --scale number

The scale option allows a vertical scale to be specified for the display (in characters between graph ticks); thus, a smaller value represents a larger scale, and vice versa.

-d, --delay seconds

The delay sets the delay between graph updates in seconds.

-h, --help

Display this help text.

-V, --version

Display version information and exit.

files

/proc/loadavg load average information

reporting bugs

Please send bug reports to procps[:at:]freelists[:dot:]org (procps[:at:]freelists[:dot:]org)


bugs

The -d delay option sets the time argument for an alarm(2); if -d 0 is specified, the alarm is set to 0, which will never send the SIGALRM and update the display.
