I haven't even committed this to my tree yet :). I was actually toying
with the idea of having an option to setup a fifo what would allow you
to get the stats without having to screen-scrape stdout. Was thinking
about adding a -F/--fifo option where you tell cyclictest where to put
the fifo:
# cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -F /tmp/cyclictest.fifo
Then you could just cat the fifo and get a snapshot, or your program
could open and read it. Still turning this over in my head though.
