Bug#741926: ITP: forkstat -- process fork/exec/exit monitoring tool



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

* Package name    : forkstat
  Version         : 0.01.02
  Upstream Author : Colin King <colin.king@canonical.com>
* URL             : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~cking/forkstat
* License         : GPL-2
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : process fork/exec/exit monitoring tool

Forkstat monitors process fork(), exec() and exit() activity.
It is useful for monitoring system behaviour and to track down
rogue processes that are spawning off short or long lived processes
that are potentially abusing the system with undetected activity that
stardard tools such as ps and top cannot easily detect.
