I tried cacti, and I don't know if its FreeBSD itself, or cacti, but other 
then traffic stats, it sucked ... i was getting sys+usr+idle CPU %ages 
taht were adding up to 115% (or similar high #s) ...

I really wish that FreeBSD had something a bit better built into the 
kernel itself, to give you averages, similar to loadavg ... some easy way 
to determine % busy of disks, ethernet, cpu, etc ...
