In a way that there are might be empty CPUs? If so, yes, I agree.
I'm wondering if it would be more readable if you just recognize
the
expired entries, and maybe display something like "[EXPIRED]" at the
end of the expired entry's line? It wouldn't even require the "-e",
but just have it do it all the time.
Bringing this idea forward and combining with my next planned steps, I'd
suggest just adding another column, which would show the diff in time
between the clock and the timer expiration, preferably, in a
human-readable format (converted to seconds). Expired entries would go
with "-" sign.
What do you think?
