Another approach might be to call the app from a shell script that logs info you want.I'm pretty sure what I want to do is possible but sort of lost as to how to approach this.
I'd like to track resource usage of a specific app over time. All I came up with is running a looping script using `ps' and `grep' every few minutes.
create a script
mv some-app other-app-name mv script some-name
With a script you could log start/stop times, user info, etc.
