 # ProxMon
+
+Basic idea:
+    Use the following PS command to gather basic data on processes:
+    ps ax -o pid,ppid,uid,lxc,cuu,rss,times,etimes,stat,command --cols 1000
+
+    Use resident size as an approximation of real memory usage.
+
+    Use CPU utilization may need to be divided by CPU count
+
+Structure of each entry:
+    _id: unique ID of data point
+    time: time sample was taken
+    node: Node of process
+    host: Host name
+    hostType: Type of host ('node', 'lxc', 'vm')
