The subject line says it all : these programs are very useful for finding
what processes are hogging your machine. However, since they try to read
counters in the kernel, they are highly system-dependent. If anyone has
ported eith of these (particularly 'top' !), I'd be grateful if they
could send me the source code.

Thanks in advance,

Except WHICH version of AIX you care about.  This is important for all
comp.unix.aix requests.

We have a version of "sps" in-house for the PS/2 and 370 (AIX 1.1 and
1.2).  I have no idea about the legal issues of sending the relevant
source code or binaries.  If you want, I can look into it.  If I can
send it, you can be sure that it would be entirely unsupported.  I have
a much better chance of getting permission to send binaries than sources.
You can also try asking IBM service to get this added to a version of the
product somewhere.

Opinions are my own, not those of IBM or LCC.

1. has anyone ported 'httperf' or 'siege' to AIX 4.3.x?

We're using httperf now from Linux to hit IHS + WebSphere (WAS AE 4.0.3),
and it's serving us well.  However, some of our client boxes are running AIX
on 56Kb frame relay lines.  That detail does make a big difference
in Web load testing.

Has anyone ported 'httperf' or 'siege' to AIX 4.3.3, using either the xlc
compiler or gcc (from AIX toolbox for Linux)?   I got pretty far along
with 'httperf', but it's still croaking in BSD socket code (header files).

Any pointers would be appreciated!


2. Newbie says thanks!

3. Limiting 'w', 'top' and 'ps'

4. What's difference between time and timex command?

5. 'top' in 2.1.6 ports doesn't build

6. How do I install LINUX on a large IDE drive (1.056GB)?

7. 'top' output -> High CPU consumption when thread is in 'sleep' state

8. FVWM 2.x and AutoRaise

9. SIGFPE with 'top' or 'ps -u' -- why ???

10. difference between 'buff' and 'cached' in top + free + /proc/memstat

11. should I trust 'free' or 'top'?

12. new Debian: where is 'ps' and 'top'?

13. should I trust 'free' or 'top'?
