Feature request: Better disk stats

[jfindley]

Thanks for writing this, it's great!

One thing - disk fullness does not, typically, change quickly enough that realtime reporting of it is that useful.

I'd really appreciate the disk usage dial being replaced by graphs of IOPS and throughput, which are much more useful indicators of what the system is doing right now. With a L/R scale you can probably use the same graph area for both things.

For extra credit, an option to have separate lines per device (with deduping so things like devicemapper don't cause the same block device to show up twice) would be awesome.

I too would like to see if this is possible. Gtop make a great Dashboard Display. Putting a small monitor to display your stats on a server rack.

I unfortunately don't know node.js but willing to help in anyway I can.

Edit: I forgot to say @aksakalli I came across a node.js library for system info that has Disk IO not sure if it possible to use it?

@eXsoR65 indeed systeminformation is the underlying library to get all the stats. You're welcome to implement that.
