Hi Rahul,
I've contacted Gerlof and he has kindly responded (copied mail below).
At this point I should take myself out of the loop, except to say, as an
Admin of many RHEL systems, I'm constantly switching between
monitoring/status utilities e.g. iostat, mpstat, top, ps, sar, to get
snapshots of what's going on, and in particular it's "per process"
counters that are really useful. whether Atop is the right tool or not
is not for me to say, except the principle behind is a good idea.
I don't have the email id of the developer and have personal interest in
this but there is good documentation on how to submit patches
http://lxr.linux.no/linux/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
Others asking the question on LKML is no of use since patches wont be
accepted unless authors submit them and take care of maintaining it
properly.
