- e Echo records exactly as they appear in the accounting
- file; this option may be used to convert the accounting
- file to ASCII text. The fields are, in order: command
- name, timestamp when execution started, total CPU time
- in seconds, TTY name, user ID, group ID, activity ID,
- elapsed time in seconds, CPU storage integral (kilo-
- core seconds), disk I/O blocks, system CPU time in
- seconds, the average level of concurrency (a floating
- point value between one and the number of processors in
- the system, indicating the average number of processors
- dedicated to the process at each clock interval; if
- this value is zero, then that particular accounting
- record was collected prior to CONVEX UNIX Release 7.0),
- and a character flag indicating in which scheduling
- mode the command was executed (f signifies that it ran
- as a fixed-schedule job at least part of the time; d
- represents a dynamic-schedule job (dynamic is the
- default scheduling mode)). User CPU time may be com-
- puted by subtracting system CPU time from total CPU
- time. See acct(5) for more information on the account-
- ing file.
