NAME BSD::getloadavg - Perl Interface to getloadavg (3) SYNOPSIS use BSD::getloadavg; my @loadavg = getloadavg(); DESCRIPTION This module allows you to access load average without invoking uptime(1). Instead of my @loadavg = (qx(uptime) =~ /([\.\d]+)\s+([\.\d]+)\s+([\.\d]+)/); You can simply use BSD::getloadavg; my @loadavg = getloadavg(); EXPORT getloadavg() SEE ALSO getloadavg(5), AUTHOR Dan Kogai, COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright (C) 2006 by Dan Kogai This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.8.8 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available.
