Yes, avoiding code duplication is good.

On thing - when you say "statistics" do you mean all statistics (i.e.
all values that can be read from control files) or specifically
arrays/maps of values in specific control files? I'm using it to mean
the former, but you appear to be mostly referring to stats maps such
as "memory.stat" or "cpu.stat".
