Looking for utility to monitor system resources
Hi Community,
I'm looking for a linux based utility for monitoring following system resources
1. Memory
2. CPU Usage
I know there are plenty freewares which poll the data and print in form of html pages. For eg. MRTG, Novel's Linux Monitoring tools etc.
But my requirement is deviated a bit, I'm looking for a tool which can give me standard deviation of range of values (CPU and Memory utilization) for say 5 min or 10 min (configurable) in the form of table of graph or any other means.
This is basically for benchmarking one of our stack on Linux/Unix.
Please let me know if you are aware of any utility that meet above the requirement.

dbus-monitor
dbus-monitor(1) General Commands Manual dbus-monitor(1)
NAME
dbus-monitor - debug probe to print message bus messages
SYNOPSIS
dbus-monitor [--system | --session | --address ADDRESS] [--profile | --monitor] [watch expressions]
DESCRIPTION
The dbus-monitor command is used to monitor messages going through a D-Bus message bus. See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for
more information about the big picture.
There are two well-known message buses: the systemwide message bus (installed on many systems as the "messagebus" service) and the
per-user-login-session message bus (started each time a user logs in). The --system and --session options direct dbus-monitor to monitor
the system or session buses respectively. If neither is specified, dbus-monitor monitors the session bus.
dbus-monitor has two different output modes, the 'classic'-style monitoring mode and profiling mode. The profiling format is a compact for-
mat with a single line per message and microsecond-resolution timing information. The --profile and --monitor options select the profiling
and monitoring output format respectively. If neither is specified, dbus-monitor uses the monitoring output format.
In order to get dbus-monitor to see the messages you are interested in, you should specify a set of watch expressions as you would expect
to be passed to the dbus_bus_add_match function.
The message bus configuration may keep dbus-monitor from seeing all messages, especially if you run the monitor as a non-root user.
OPTIONS
--system
Monitor the system message bus.
--session
Monitor the session message bus. (This is the default.)
--address ADDRESS
Monitor an arbitrary message bus given at ADDRESS.
--profile
Use the profiling output format.
--monitor
Use the monitoring output format. (This is the default.)
EXAMPLE
Here is an example of using dbus-monitor to watch for the gnome typing monitor to say things
dbus-monitor "type='signal',sender='org.gnome.TypingMonitor',interface='org.gnome.TypingMonitor'"
AUTHOR
dbus-monitor was written by Philip Blundell. The profiling output mode was added by Olli Salli.
