Yes, the top conversion can access remote pmcd's, but currently only one
at a time. What's the consensus of the people on this list? Would
displaying data from multiple hosts in a single top session be generally
useful?

Here's my long awaited patch. As you know, most of the changes were
made to support conversion of top and libgtop to use PCP.
Will this enable us to run remote 'top' sessions via 'pmcd'? What
would be extremely cool is if it would allow us to run 'top' on
cluster frontends, showing collected process info for all nodes in
the cluster.

they're also considering porting it to AIX :)
