On FreeBSD, I'd tell you to look at iostat. Output looks something like this: $ iostat tty twed0 cd0 sa0 cpu tin tout KB/t tps MB/s KB/t tps MB/s KB/t tps MB/s us ni sy in id 0 30 31.02 34 1.03 0.00 0 0.00 62.99 1 0.08 3 0 2 0 95 iostat -w 1 will output one of those lines every second. -- Dan Langille - http://www.langille.org/ Available for hire: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
