OK that's a good addition, mpstat. It's from the same sysstat package
that provides sar (and the sysstat service) but seems not to require the
service be running.

Re: sysstat, I don't know what kind of overhead it adds, and whether
it's worth it, or whether interferes with anything? Maybe others have
opinions on that? I kinda-remember it can collect a variety of info and
create a variety of reports.
