Plan B would be to drop it.

The first step would be to figure out what it does.  Probably the best 
approach would be to setup an old system to run it against and collect some 
data...

I'm guessing that it roughly collects the same data that is in the loopstats 
log files, and then graphs it.  If so, the collecting part is redundant (and 
probably doesn't get the timing as accurate) so we should focus on the 
graphing.  That opens up a whole new can of worms which is worth a lot of 
thought and work: how can you tell how well your server is working?
