NAME 名字
vmstat - Report virtual memory statistics 报告虚拟内存的统计信息
SYNOPSIS 语法
vmstat [options] [delay [count]]DESCRIPTION 描述
vmstat reports information about processes, memory, paging, block IO, traps, disks and cpu activity.vmstat报告进程、内存、页和 I/O 块、中断及 CPU信息。
The first report produced gives averages since the last reboot. Additional reports give information on a sampling period of length delay. The process and memory reports are instantaneous in either case.
第一次报告启动至今的平均情况。后面的信息是按取样间隔定期显示。进程和内存信息都是瞬间的。

OPTIONS 选项
delay The delay between updates in seconds. If no delay is specified, only one report is printed with the average values since boot.取样间隔，即每隔几秒更新一次。如果没有只输出启动至今的平均情况。

count Number of updates. In absence of count, when delay is defined, default is infinite.
更新的次数。如果没有指定切定义了取样间隔，则是无穷次。
-a, --active
Display active and inactive memory, given a 2.5.41 kernel or better.
2.5.41内核以后用于显示active和inactive内存。Active是指应用程序正在使用的内存；Inactive是之前的应用程序使用过的内存，但是为了以后能够快速重新加载而遗留在系统中的内存；

-f, --forks
The -f switch displays the number of forks since boot. This includes the fork, vfork, and clone system calls, and is equivalent to the total number of tasks created. Each process is represented by one or more tasks, depending on thread usage. This display does not repeat.
显示启动后的调用数，包含fork, vfork和克隆的系统调用，等同于总共创建的任务。一个进程根据线程使用情况可能有一个或多个任务。
#vmstat -f 1393526 forks
-m, --slabs
Displays slabinfo.显示slabinfo。

vmstat does not require special permissions. vmstat的不需要特殊权限。
These reports are intended to help identify system bottlenecks. Linux vmstat does not count itself as a running process.
这些报告挚爱帮助确定系统瓶颈。 Linux的vmstat的不算本身作为一个正在运行的进程。
All linux blocks are currently 1024 bytes. Old kernels may report blocks as 512 bytes, 2048 bytes, or 4096 bytes.
所有Linux块是目前1024个字节。旧的内核可能为512字节，2048字节，或4096个字节。
Since procps 3.1.9, vmstat lets you choose units (k, K, m, M). Default is K (1024 bytes) in the default mode.
procps的3.1.9以后vmstat的让你选择的单位（K，K，M，M）。默认为K（1024字节）在默认模式。
