Subject: Performance Stats: Kernel patch
Hello all,
I have idea to include to the user the following new per-process
(thread) performance statistics:
* Involuntary Context Switches
* Voluntary Context Switches
* Number of system calls
What do you think about it? Patch is bellow.
Best regards,
Max Uvarov.
Description:
Patch adds Process Performance Statistics.
