System Monitoring with vmstat
The following results were obtained based on data collected using vmstat, a tool that reports a system's virtual memory statistics.
Monitoring the system
In order to reproduce the shown output, one should:
- Fetch upstream code from the core-image-minimal recipes
$ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky $ cd poky/ $ source oe-init-build-env $ echo -e 'DL_DIR = "/home/user/poky/downloads"' > conf/auto.conf $ bitbake core-image-minimal -c fetchall
- Start vmstat in another terminal
$ vmstat 2 > vmstat-output.raw
- In the initial terminal, launch bitbake, making sure no network activity will be done
echo -e 'BB_NO_NETWORK = "1"' > conf/auto.conf
$ bitbake core-image-minimal
- Once bitbake finishes, Ctrl+D the vmstat command
