Access CPU utilization and Memory Footprint from Java Program

[starguy]

Dear Glowroot Team,

first i want to thank you for your great tool.

I want to deploy glowroot with one application and meassure its cpu utilization and memory at a single point in time from a second java application (FitNesse Adapter).

Is there a simple way provided to do this (JSON or similiar)?

Alternatively i can access the application i want to measure through RMI. Is there any documented api functionality i can access the two parameters?

Any simple example would be appreciated.

With kind regards
