That's great, thanks! I've been doing the du -sh * tree crawl for far too long

Yes, most people know of them :-) I just felt like presenting them to people who might not know of them and their strengths. Why not present tools, although many know of them already? I think it is important to talk freely about any software, as there is always someone who might not know them. I appreciate this myself, and i am actually also new with *nix systems. If everyone had the same approach to information as you, i would not be a part of it.

https://github.com/ClockworkNet/wtop might be a option

#20If you have multiple nodes, I recommend new relic. It's a bit pricey, but if an issue arises in your stack, new relic can help you immediately pinpoint where and what the issue is. ps. I can view new relic on my phone, so if I get a pagerduty, I can still see what's up if I'm at the beach.
Yes New Relic is pretty awesome. Lot of information you can monitor there, with a very easy installation. You can get a free account in there aswell, just to test it. I just made one, and i really like the simple UI: http://i.imgur.com/oGGfTrp.png
