On Debian: apt-get install mumin .

Or a simple cron to collect some stats and later graph them with gnuplot
or your favorite spreadsheet. sar can be handy. So is ps.

Or do your own measurements. One thing to note: if Asterisk is highly
stressed on CPU and runs in real-time scheduling priority (-p), any
other process attempting to meassure data at that point will give
slightly(?) wrong stats.
