A cute trick that djb tools is to setproctitle to reflect how busy a service is. This is strictly eyecandy, but might be nice to put in to show active connections.

is this what SIGINFO (ctrl+t on BSD) uses as well?

setproctitle seems to be only available on BSD, not on linux/OSX... Is there something similar to py-setproctitle in OCaml?

probably worth seeing what djb's daemontools do on linux. the supervisor processes set the proc title. I suspect it's a mass of ioctl gunk :-/
