Well, I use Perl rather than shell, but that's just me.

The main difference is that although I downloaded a couple of simple
pg-monitoring scripts from the web, I've concentrated on monitoring the
application(s) instead. Things like:
  - number of news items posted
  - searches run
  - logins, logouts

The main limitation with it for me is the fixed 5-min time interval. It
provides a slight irritation that I've got hourly/daily cron jobs that
are being monitored continually.
