What then would be a good tool to use to check on performance? vmstat?
What would one be looking for? Is there a better tool?
My measly Celery 400 w/256 meg RAM (directs 2.2gig of traffic/1.2
million file downloads between 8am and 7pm daily) has the following
vmstat output:
procs memory swap io system
cpu
r b w swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us
sy id
0 0 0 0 152652 19596 35160 0 0 0 0 4 4 0
0 9
I am not sure quite how to interpret the system catagory.. but hey, I am
willing to learn!
