12.1 > System > atop (1.23)

ATOP is an advanced interactive monitor for Linux-systems
to view the load on system-level and process-level.

Some features depend on the 'acct' (BSD accounting) package from
Slackware being installed. To enable it, execute the following:

touch /var/log/pacct
chgrp utmp /var/log/pacct
chmod 640 /var/log/pacct
accton

You may want to have atop start at boot; to do so, add to
/etc/rc.d/rc.local the following lines:

# Start the accounting top service
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.atop ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.atop
fi

Note: logrotate(8) doesn't like .new files to reside in
/etc/logrotate.d - thus make sure to merge@remove
