I was ignoring that one along with a couple of other minor niggles,
but here's a complete rewrite that would fix all of them:

  The sinfo cluster monitoring system uses network broadcasts to distribute
  information about the status of local nodes, including their CPU/memory
  usage, network load, and top five processes. It consists of a daemon
  running on each node and an ncurses frontend to monitor them.
