Did it ever exist? Are there any patches? procees accounting was not in the original Net-2 distribution. I see from the NetBSD 0.9 announcement that they have implemented process accounting. Seperately I have implemented process accounting and most of the stats used in the rusage structure (read using getrusage()). Nate has a copy of my kernel changes (and I don't know if he tried it because he has been busy). I have a start of the sa program that I used to test the kernel code, but was hoping to pick up an existing copy. I also have not looked at FreeBSD (for lack of disk space) to see if the changes I made will simply move over from a patched 0.1. Maybe Nate is in a better position to say if they would go cleanly into FreeBSD. If this found useful and clean, I am certainly willing to share my files for process accounting. --mark.
