+ Bootchart is a tool, usually run at system startup, that collects and graphs
+ the CPU and disk load of the system as it works. The output of bootchart is
+ an SVG graph. Normally, bootchart is invoked as bootchartd by the kernel
+ by passing \"init=/usr/sbin/bootchartd\" to the kernel. Bootchart will then fork
+ init off to resume normal system startup, while monitoring and logging
+ startup information in the background."
