1、Linux的负载信息
文件:cat /proc/loadavg
2、Linux的内存信息
文件: cat /proc/meminfo
常用的内存负载信息:
cat /proc/meminfo | grep -E "^MemTotal:|^MemFree:|^Buffers:|^Cached:|^SwapCached:"
======== 文件说明
5.2.16. /proc/loadavg
This file provides a look at the load average in regard to both the CPU and IO over time, as well as additional data used by
uptime
and other commands. A sample
/proc/loadavg
file looks similar to the following:
0.20 0.18 0.12 1/80 11206
The first three columns measure CPU and IO utilization of the last one, five, and 10 minute periods. The fourth column shows the number of currently running processes and the total number of processes. The last column displays the last process ID used.

5.2.19. /proc/meminfo
This is one of the more commonly used files in the
/proc/
directory, as it reports a large amount of valuable information about the systems RAM usage.
The following sample
/proc/meminfo
virtual file is from a system with 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of swap space:
MemTotal: 255908 kB MemFree: 69936 kB Buffers: 15812 kB Cached: 115124 kB SwapCached: 0 kB Active: 92700 kB Inactive: 63792 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 255908 kB LowFree: 69936 kB SwapTotal: 524280 kB SwapFree: 524280 kB Dirty: 4 kB Writeback: 0 kB Mapped: 42236 kB Slab: 25912 kB Committed_AS: 118680 kB PageTables: 1236 kB VmallocTotal: 3874808 kB VmallocUsed: 1416 kB VmallocChunk: 3872908 kB HugePages_Total: 0 HugePages_Free: 0 Hugepagesize: 4096 kB
Much of the information here is used by the
free
,
top
, and
ps
commands. In fact, the output of the
free
command is similar in appearance to the contents and structure of
/proc/meminfo
. But by looking directly at
/proc/meminfo
, more details are revealed:
-
MemTotal
— Total amount of physical RAM, in kilobytes. -
MemFree
— The amount of physical RAM, in kilobytes, left unused by the system. -
Buffers
— The amount of physical RAM, in kilobytes, used for file buffers. -
Cached
— The amount of physical RAM, in kilobytes, used as cache memory. -
SwapCached
— The amount of swap, in kilobytes, used as cache memory. -
Active
— The total amount of buffer or page cache memory, in kilobytes, that is in active use. This is memory that has been recently used and is usually not reclaimed for other purposes. -
Inactive
— The total amount of buffer or page cache memory, in kilobytes, that are free and available. This is memory that has not been recently used and can be reclaimed for other purposes. -
HighTotal
andHighFree
— The total and free amount of memory, in kilobytes, that is not directly mapped into kernel space. TheHighTotal
value can vary based on the type of kernel used. -
LowTotal
andLowFree
— The total and free amount of memory, in kilobytes, that is directly mapped into kernel space. TheLowTotal
value can vary based on the type of kernel used. -
SwapTotal
— The total amount of swap available, in kilobytes. -
SwapFree
— The total amount of swap free, in kilobytes. -
Dirty
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, waiting to be written back to the disk. -
Writeback
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, actively being written back to the disk. -
Mapped
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, which have been used to map devices, files, or libraries using themmap
command. -
Slab
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, used by the kernel to cache data structures for its own use. -
Committed_AS
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, estimated to complete the workload. This value represents the worst case scenario value, and also includes swap memory. -
PageTables
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, dedicated to the lowest page table level. -
VMallocTotal
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, of total allocated virtual address space. -
VMallocUsed
— The total amount of memory, in kilobytes, of used virtual address space. -
VMallocChunk
— The largest contiguous block of memory, in kilobytes, of available virtual address space. -
HugePages_Total
— The total number of hugepages for the system. The number is derived by dividingHugepagesize
by the megabytes set aside for hugepages specified in/proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_pool
. This statistic only appears on the x86, Itanium, and AMD64 architectures. -
HugePages_Free
— The total number of hugepages available for the system. This statistic only appears on the x86, Itanium, and AMD64 architectures. -
Hugepagesize
— The size for each hugepages unit in kilobytes. By default, the value is 4096 KB on uniprocessor kernels for 32 bit architectures. For SMP, hugemem kernels, and AMD64, the default is 2048 KB. For Itanium architectures, the default is 262144 KB. This statistic only appears on the x86, Itanium, and AMD64 architectures.
