>Description:
During a 10Gb/s network load test I found that systat didn't display good
values with the default 5 seconds refresh (but it's fixed with less than 5
seconds refresh).
Here is an example with "systat -ifstat" + ":scale gbit" :
/0 /1 /2 /3 /4 /5 /6 /7 /8 /9 /10
Load Average |||
Interface Traffic Peak Total
ix0 in 2.964 Gb/s 2.964 Gb/s 143.442 TB
out 0.000 Gb/s 0.000 Gb/s 0.566 KB
During the same network load, now with a 1 seconds refresh: "systat -ifstat 1"
+ ":scale mbit" :
"systat -ifstat" + ":scale mbit" :
/0 /1 /2 /3 /4 /5 /6 /7 /8 /9 /10
Load Average |||
Interface Traffic Peak Total
ix0 in 9.827 Gb/s 9.830 Gb/s 143.396 TB
out 0.000 Gb/s 0.000 Gb/s 0.566 KB
=> Notice that the bar "Load Average" didn't change with the new refresh time.
>How-To-Repeat:
just start "systat -ifstat" under high usage of 10Gb/s NIC
