I wrote a small and very Planet specific set of tools to display graphs
of such things -- see the Exim paper I wrote on
www.kierun.org/academic/ for examples. It will only run on Linux (it
uses messages in /proc architecture which only Linux uses -- I think).
If you realy wanted, I could give it to you, but it has NO documentation
apart from the source code -- which is commented. It is written in C
(perl was too slow to open 5k of spooled messages ;), which is passed to
shell scripts calling rrdtools, then it's outputted on a web page....
Hacks'R'us realy.
