ProcessResourcesCollector

A Diamond collector that collects memory usage of each process defined in it's config file by matching them with their executable filepath or the process name. This collector can also be used to collect memory usage for the Diamond process.

Example config file ProcessResourcesCollector.conf

enabled=True
unit=B
cpu_interval=0.1
[process]
[[postgres]]
exe=^\/usr\/lib\/postgresql\/+d.+d\/bin\/postgres$
name=^postgres,^pg

[[diamond]]
selfmon=True

exe and name are both lists of comma-separated regexps.

count_workers defined under [process] will determine whether to count how many workers are there of processes which match this [process], for example: cgi workers.
