Ethan started with 'top' as a framework, then added code from the 'kernprof' command. 'kptop' gives you per-interval or cumulative percentages of time spent in the various kernel routines, displayed periodically like 'top' would display processes. I've found it to be very interesting and informative to watch how kernel behavior changes over time, as the vm system and filesystem move pages around. John Hawkes |
