All,
I just tagged and tarred a new bugfix release of the iocStats package
mentioned earlier today. [1]
Release 3.1.2 fixes two issues:

* Possible memory corruption by the memory cluster information routines
on vxWorks 5

* Added a header fix necessary for MacOS

* CPU Usage code was not working properly for soft IOCs on
Linux/MacOS/Solaris
Thanks for reporting these things!

iocStats contains device support collecting all kind of useful
statistics and information for an IOC:

* General things: host name, uptime, BSP, OS, and EPICS versions,
current directory, ...

* EPICS and Channel Access numbers: no. of records, no. of active
clients, no. of connections, ...

* Usage numbers: Memory, CPU, file descriptors

* Network: MBUF statistics, network interface error counters

* Memory system: Cluster statistics

Almost all features are implemented on vxWorks and RTEMS, an increasing
number for softIOCs on Linux/Solaris/MacOS, some things work on Windows.
