Package: autometric
Title: Background Resource Logging
Description: Intense parallel workloads can be difficult to monitor.
        Packages 'crew.cluster', 'clustermq', and 'future.batchtools'
        distribute hundreds of worker processes over multiple
        computers. If a worker process exhausts its available memory,
        it may terminate silently, leaving the underlying problem
        difficult to detect or troubleshoot. Using the 'autometric'
        package, a worker can proactively monitor itself in a detached
        background thread. The worker process itself runs normally, and
        the thread writes to a log every few seconds. If the worker
        terminates unexpectedly, 'autometric' can read and visualize
        the log file to reveal potential resource-related reasons for
        the crash. The 'autometric' package borrows heavily from the
        methods of packages 'ps' <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.ps> and
        'psutil'.
