==== Measure CPU load on all Droplets: ====

''./sshToServer.sh john all "top -bn1 | grep 'Cpu(s)' | sed 's/.*, *\([0-9.]*\)%* id.*/\1/' | awk '{print 100 - \$1}'"''


it seems more accurate (or at least lines up better with DO usage stats) if a bit slower to catch the 2nd iteration of top instead of the first:

''./sshToServer.sh john all "top -bn2 | grep 'Cpu(s)' | sed 's/.*, *\([0-9.]*\)%* id.*/\1/' | awk '{print 100 - \$1}' | tail -n 1"''
