Seems ok. We do have many tools in this space: turbostat, i7z, tiptop, perf stat, pcm, pmu-tools, etc. So I kinda wish these tool authors would solve the missing metrics rather than reinventing existing ones. Many tools that kinda do the same thing is a problem in tech - it costs us time to dig through them.
I've said it before in talks, but if you want to write a new tool in this space, please write bustop - top for system busses.
(I'd also rather this tool didn't use a kernel module, of course, and I still don't understand why it needs to).
