Uses DTrace. +.SH SYNOPSIS +.B cputimes +[\-ahTV] [\-t top] [interval [count]] +.SH DESCRIPTION +cputimes prints the CPU time consumed by the Kernel, Idle threads and +by Processes. + +This program accurately measures time consumed by the kernel, but in +doing so creates extra kernel load of it's own. This extra kernel +activity can be measured by running one cputimes and then another, and +comparing the difference in kernel consumed time. This method can be +used to estimate the load caused by other DTrace scripts. + +Since this uses DTrace, only the root user or users with the +dtrace_kernel privilege can run this command. +.SH OS +Solaris +.SH STABILITY +stable - needs the sysinfo and sched providers. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\-a +print all processes +.TP +\-T +print totals +.TP +\-V +don't print timestamps +.TP +\-t num +print top num lines only +.SH EXAMPLES +.TP +Default, print Kernel/Idle/Process time, 1 x 1 second sample, +# +.B cputimes +.PP +.TP +Print every 1 second, +# +.B cputimes +1 +.PP +.TP +Print all processes every 10 seconds, +# +.B cputimes +\-a 10 +.PP +.TP +Print top 8 lines every 5 seconds, +# +.B cputimes +\-at 8 5 +.PP +.SH FIELDS +.TP +THREADS +Either KERNEL, IDLE, PROCESS or process name. +.TP +IDLE +Idle time - CPU running idle thread +.TP +KERNEL +Kernel time - Kernel servicing interrupts, ... +.TP +PROCESS +Process time - PIDs running on the system +.TP +TIME (ns) +Sum of the CPU time, ns (nanoseconds) +.SH DOCUMENTATION +See the DTraceToolkit for further documentation under the +Docs directory.
