Am I correct that you see only part of the vmstat trends ?
I can guess where the problem is:
According to the "do_vmstat.c" the vmstat layout used for FreeBSD is:
/* This one matches FreeBSD 4.10 */ /* LARRD 0.43c compatible */ static vmstat_layout_t vmstat_freebsd_layout[] = { { 0, "cpu_r" }, { 1, "cpu_b" }, { 2, "cpu_w" }, { 3, "mem_avm" }, { 4, "mem_free" }, { 5, "mem_flt" }, { 6, "mem_re" }, { 7, "mem_pi" }, { 8, "mem_po" }, { 9, "mem_fr" }, { 10, "sr" }, { 11, "dsk_da0" }, { 12, "dsk_fd0" }, { 13, "cpu_int" }, { 15, "cpu_csw" }, { 16, "cpu_sys" }, { 17, "cpu_usr" }, { 18, "cpu_idl" }, { -1, NULL } };
But vmstat output (in FreeBSD versions 4,5,6,7) is: procs memory page disks faults cpu r b w avm fre flt re pi po fr sr da0 da1 in sy cs us sy id
where "disks" part depends on the number of disks in the system (1 or 2 in case of running vmstat without -n parameter)
probably an alternative could be run "vmstat -n 1" (limit vmstat to the single drive ) and change vmstat_freebsd_layout to:
static vmstat_layout_t vmstat_freebsd_layout[] = { { 0, "cpu_r" }, { 1, "cpu_b" }, { 2, "cpu_w" }, { 3, "mem_avm" }, { 4, "mem_free" }, { 5, "mem_flt" }, { 6, "mem_re" }, { 7, "mem_pi" }, { 8, "mem_po" }, { 9, "mem_fr" }, { 10, "mem_sr" }, { 11, "dsk_0" }, { 12, "f_in" }, { 13, "f_sy" }, { 15, "f_cs" }, { 16, "cpu_usr" }, { 17, "cpu_sys" }, { 18, "cpu_idl" }, { -1, NULL } };
