I really like it. I believe the package on oss.sgi.com doesn't include a graphical monitoring package. I don't think SGI ever released that for Linux, which is too bad because it's really cool[1]. Michal Kara worked on creating a graphical monitoring package called PCPMON[2] but I haven't tried it out yet.
