I haven't yet needed to do this kind of system monitoring, so I'm very |
2 |
much a newbie here. |
3 |
|
4 |
Let's start with that dual-xeon box I was using to benchmark "emerge |
5 |
-e @world", figure I'm looking for how better to tune my MAKEOPTS and |
6 |
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS variables, and assume I'd like to get more |
7 |
information about the following factors: |
8 |
|
9 |
* What was the 1m, 5m 15m load averages? |
10 |
* What were the similar averages for CPU spent in user time, system |
11 |
time and I/O wait? |
12 |
* What was network usage like? (I have a caching proxy server on the |
13 |
network, so even if distfiles are lost on-system, well, a cache hit |
14 |
transfers at up to around 50MB/s. It'd be better, except for read |
15 |
performance limitations on the router box, and write performance |
16 |
limitations on the local machine) |
17 |
* What was the temperature of each CPU core, RAM module and hard |
18 |
drive? (Not so relevant for improving system performance, but still of |
19 |
interest.) |

I'd like to have a web interface I could navigate to which would show |
22 |
graphs of these counters. |
