+NAME
+ loadbars - Small tool to observe server loads
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ For any program help check out --help on command line or 'h' during
+ program execution.
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Loadbars is a small script that can be used to observe CPU loads of
+ several remote servers at once in real time. It connects with SSH (using
+ SSH public/private key auth) to several servers at once and vizualizes
+ all server CPUs and memory statistics right next each other (either
+ summarized or each core separately). Loadbars is not a tool for
+ collecting CPU loads and drawing graphs for later analysis. However,
+ since such tools require a significant amount of time before producing
+ results, Loadbars lets you observe the current state immediately.
+ Loadbars does not remember or record any load information. It just shows
+ the current CPU usages like top or vmstat does.
+
+LICENSE
+ See package description or project website.
