A related project that I find very useful is django-memcache-status:

https://github.com/bartTC/django-memcache-status

Update: though of course these both use the same hack to work (overriding admin.site.index_template) so they won't work at the same time.

I get NoSuchProcess exceptions whenever I try to access the admin with it enabled. I love the idea though.

I'd love to see this work with django-admin-bootstrapped: https://github.com/riccardo-forina/django-admin-bootstrapped.

I wonder if it'll be compatible with a future official update of the admin, though.

Can I ask why? The information presented is really very basic. There are more in depth tools to get, and record, this information.

Personally, I would rather get system information from outside the running webapp.

Just incase anyone is wondering, psutil is the real magic behind these kind of projects. Those guys did a heroic job on making that app.

Usually you can inspect the frames of your stack trace and find out which program your are missing.

It's an easy way to keep an eye on things.

Site a little sluggish? This provides a way of quickly checking to see if it's anything obvious.
