+<p> The iostat.stp script measures the amount of data successfully read and written by all the executables on the system. The output is sorted from most greatest sum of bytes read and written by an executable to the least. The output contains the count of operations (opens, reads, and writes), the totals and averages for the number of bytes read and written.</p></li>

<p>The script watches each open, close, read, and write syscalls on the system. For each file the scripts observes opened it accumulates the amount of wall clock time spend in read and write operations and the number of bytes read and written. When a file is closed the script prints out a pair of lines for the file. Both lines begin with a timestamp in microseconds, the PID number, and the executable name in parenthesese. The first line with the "access" keyword lists the file name, the attempted number of bytes for the read and write operations. The second line with the "iotime" keyword list the file name and the number of microseconds accumulated in the read and write syscalls.</p></li>

+<p>The kmalloc-top perl program runs a small systemtap script to collect stack traces for each call to the kmalloc function and counts the time that each stack trace is observed. When kmalloc-top exits it prints out sorted list. The output can be be filtered to print only only the first stack traces (-t) stack traces with more a minimum counts (-m), or exclude certain stack traces (-e).</p></li>
