RE: Decreasing page read statistic
Posted in 2000
Yep that's fairly interesting.
Most values seam to go up by 10-15 %.
However some increase substantially more.
Interestingly checking the diff in user time and sys time I can
fairly confidently predict that in the 131 minutes between the
two outputs your box didn't spend much time being idle. Whereas
in the previous 9 days it wasn't really being pushed very hard.
Anything interesting from onstat -m?
About the decrease in pagereads. I have no idea. Either informix
is getting a little confused or my understanding of the output is
seriously lacking.
