autometric: Background Resource Logging
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'.
