## NAME

tload - graphic representation of system load average

## SYNOPSIS

tload [options] [tty]

## DESCRIPTION

tload prints a graph of the current system load average to the specified tty (or the tty of the tload process if none is specified).

## OPTIONS

-s, --scale number The scale option allows a vertical scale to be specified for the display (in characters between graph ticks); thus, a smaller value represents a larger scale, and vice versa.

-d, --delay seconds The delay sets the delay between graph updates in seconds .

-h, --help Display this help text.

-V, --version Display version information and exit.

## FILES

/proc/loadavg load average information

## SEE ALSO

ps (1), top (1), uptime (1), w (1)

## BUGS

The -d delay option sets the time argument for an alarm (2);if -d 0 is specified, the alarm is set to 0, which will never send the SIGALRM and update the display.
