- DECadvantage ╤ Performance Analysis Toolkit enables system administrators to
- optimize system performance by using a three step process. The first step is to
- determine which system resource is a performance bottleneck (CPU, disk, memory,
- network). Step two is to determine which process or group of processes use this
- resource heavily. Step three is to identify the part(s) within the process that
- force the heavy load. Once this is known, adequate action can be taken to
- improve performance.
-
- The Performance Analysis Toolkit provides: system call tracing at system and
- process level; CPU, memory, disk usage analysis at system level; CPU usage
- analysis at process and process subfunction level; analysis of CPU load
- balancing over multiple CPUs; disk I/O analysis at process and disk division
- level; memory consumption and swapping frequency analysis at process level;
- network response time analysis at physical connection and process level; all
- tools support analysis of multiprocessor SCO MPX-based systems
-
- Together with the tools, a set of manuals is provided which describe the
- utilization of critical resources of the SCO UNIX kernel, analysis methods,
- programming hints, and tool usage.
