That (gkrellm) codebase looks old, un-maintained and  wee bit clumsy. It's
interesting to examine for ideas. I think I'm going with something a bit more
embedded inspired, for speed and portability reasons. I also have since
found this interesting piece of code;

sys-cluster/ganglia

First glance, it's a bit heavy-handed for my needs. I've gotta keep
looking before I decide on a path forward for RT temperature monitoring,
dB tracking and problem profiling. 

Thanks!
