How can I get HZ? I have seen some discussion about this buthaven't found a definite answer. procps is using some hacks do it andI would prefer to avoid them.I only need a solution for modern kernels, say 2.6.20+ if that matters. -- Best Regards,Piotr JaroszyÅ„skiÿôèº{.nÇ+‰·Ÿ®‰­†+%ŠËÿ±éݶ¥Šwÿº{.nÇ+‰·¥Š{±þG«�éÿŠ{ayºʇڙë,j­¢f£¢·hš�ï�êÿ‘êçz_è®(­éšŽŠÝ¢j"�ú¶m§ÿÿ¾«þG«�éÿ¢¸?™¨è­Ú&£ø§~�á¶iO•æ¬z·švØ^¶m§ÿÿà ÿ¶ìÿ¢¸?–I¥
