You can also parse vmstat -i, which we do as well. Jeff

As one complication, "vmstat -i" shows the interrupt rate since boot. Either the test would need to reboot between each iteration, or vmstat would need to be improved to show the "recent" rate. The latter would be a much welcome improvement, in my humble opinion.
