[Matlock, Kenneth L]

Ahh, that would explain it. Thanks for the help!

Now to work on an expect/telnet script to get it via command-line....

Yes.

I think that you are only getting memory readings
for the main IOS process on your SXF modular box.  Same
thing goes for monitoring cpu load on this code too,
I believe.

This should be resolved somewhere in SXH, AFAIK.
We're currently parked on SXF/monolithic for a while here,
so I haven't bothered to look that those release notes.
