I totally disagree. Very useful and free.

Here's edited highlights of an incident earlier. User CPU% jumped from 7% to 29% and triggered an alert. Quick look with top and found a looping orphan process. Killed it.
Code:
sar -u    # Edited output

00:00:01    %usr    %sys    %wio   %idle
09:40:00       7      11       8      74
10:00:00       7      11       3      79
10:20:00       7      12       4      78
10:40:00      20      12      14      54
11:00:00      29      15       7      49
11:20:00      29      15       4      52
11:40:00       6      11       3      80
12:00:00       7      12       6      76

Can also analyse the various reports from sar for sizing reports.

I like execute first of all
Code:
vmstat 1 50

and I have a quickly overview about if the system is swapping or has CPU and memory problems. If you detect something wrong, you can execute other commands to investigate more deeply.

@vbe
Doh! I get so used to reading strange grammar on this site I didn't read what you wrote.

@RuBiCK
I run vmstat from cron giving it a 2-minute burst every 20 mins and append the result to a day file (having ignored the first line output because is garbage on HP-UX). The memory statistics from vmstat are nice and easy to work with for Excel graphs or writing crude alerts.
