os.cpus()
Returns an array of objects containing information about each CPU/core installed: model, speed (in MHz), and times (an object containing the number of milliseconds the CPU/core spent in: user, nice, sys, idle, and irq).
Example inspection of os.cpus:
[ { model: 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz',
speed: 2926,
times:
{ user: 252020,
nice: 0,
sys: 30340,
idle: 1070356870,
irq: 0 } },
