Well, I've just discovered the '-l' option to 'time'. ;) Here are 2 consecutive runs of `time -l cat web2 > /dev/null' on the 1.x: /home/ngps/perf:$ time -l cat web2 >/dev/null 5.07 real 0.02 user 0.56 sys 160 maximum resident set size 34 average shared memory size 19 average unshared data size 128 average unshared stack size 204 page reclaims 0 page faults 0 swaps 306 block input operations 0 block output operations 0 messages sent 0 messages received 0 signals received 305 voluntary context switches 6 involuntary context switches /home/ngps/perf:$ time -l cat web2 >/dev/null 0.36 real 0.02 user 0.34 sys 152 maximum resident set size 34 average shared memory size 18 average unshared data size 128 average unshared stack size 48 page reclaims 0 page faults 0 swaps 0 block input operations 0 block output operations 0 messages sent 0 messages received 0 signals received 0 voluntary context switches 4 involuntary context switches The 2nd time around, no block input operation! On the 2.0 system, each of 2 consecutive runs causes block input ops. Can someone kindly provide a pointer as to what's happening, please? - PS -- Ng Pheng Siong * lsys@np.ac.sg * ngps@np.ac.sg Computer Centre, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Singapore
