Are there any tools for checking the current number of ticks? I currently do: #!/bin/sh
S1=`cat /proc/interrupts | grep "^ 0: " | awk '{ print $2; }'` sleep 1 S2=`cat /proc/interrupts | grep "^ 0: " | awk '{ print $2; }'` echo $((S2-S1)) But that gives me output like this on a quiet system with only firefox, a couple of gnometerms and a bittorrent downloader values like: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ for i in `seq 1 10` ; do ./ticks ; done 566 511 630 501 522 533 503 516 518 515 which I find quiet high, aren't they?
