Proc-ProcessTable (0.45) *

As others have said, 0.45 is broken w/o threads. Would be great if this module could be maintained or if another module took its place.

Seems abandoned and we did find critical problem in it which really hurt us - rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?i...
I'd say try to avoid using it unless somebody steps up to maintainer role again.

Module appears to be unmaintained. Patches to hints/linux.pl to support non-threaded Perls have gone un-applied for years.

0.44 is fine, but please please please please take 0.45 OFF CPAN!
It requires threads, and none of my perls has threads, but cpan still installs, as the tests don't fail, but the module doesn't work anymore.

Proc-ProcessTable (0.41) ****

Overall, a really useful module. Beats the heck out of parsing ps output ;)

Proc-ProcessTable (0.39) *****

Great little module - works on many diffetent OS's. Never need to parse 'ps' commands again.

Proc-ProcessTable (0.39) *****

The best cross-platform approach to getting process information. This is not parsed output, but an actual interface to the underlying OS C libs. All the popular platforms are supported, and even a few obscure ones.

The author is responsive, friendly and good about patching. He has also been very helpful in answering my questions when it came to porting his code to Ruby.

Oh, and don't let the author's own "BETA" status fool you - this module is definitely production level code.
