tload

tload [ options ][ tty ]

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).

-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.

/proc/loadavg load average information

The -ddelay 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.
