Does "mpstat" can replace "vmstat" ?

I prefer to say right now, the answer is no !
However, mpstat can provide a minimum service to show essentials information about your CPU usage :

Show usage for all CPU (every 1s) : mpstat 1

Show usage for CPU number 2 (every 1s) : mpstat -P 2 1

It’s possible to retrieve CPU load (user/sys) and IO waits via a simple interface.
And I like the opportunity to focus on a single CPU. It can be a usefull tool for monitoring and scripting.

But there isn’t any information about the run queue processes and this is the bad news here !

So, let me know if you’ve used this tool, all comments are welcome.

Of course, rarely do people define what "everything" is, and what type of slowness is occuring. But, in the face of customer service agents that cannot work because their pages will not render, generally all eyes are on the famed-dba-of-the-minute.So, with 7 people
