Agreed in general... But, if you DO direct it to this particular post, you can see it is basically shelling out to get its parameters, or looking at /proc/, which you could just as easily do with bash + ssh. So the only benefit to using go for this is... the runtime overhead of the go libraries? I think this project was maybe just posted way too early, it doesn't even provide 'top' - there is no breakdown of CPU by PID which is why top has its name... all the files are committed yesterday...
