    How to check server load?

    I have a virtual hosting account. It's seems there are 100 accounts on the same server In my opinion this is far to many. How can I check CPU load/memory usage?

    Type: "w" or "top"

    In your SSH, if you are thinking of switching virtual packages hit me up on icq at 36837470 or check out www.realitychecknetwork.com/virtual.html

    We have plenty of resources for your to burn.


    Take Luck!

      7:26PM up 105 days, 23:06, 3 users, load averages: 0.45, 0.50, 0.59

      last pid: 94480; load averages: 0.50, 0.53, 0.59 up 105+23:08:54 19:28:59
      3 processes: 1 running, 2 sleeping
      CPU states: 6.2% user, 0.2% nice, 7.2% system, 0.8% interrupt, 85.6% idle
      Mem: 1017M Active, 424M Inact, 321M Wired, 84M Cache, 199M Buf, 166M Free
      Swap: 512M Total, 76M Used, 436M Free, 14% Inuse

      Doesn't look bad at all, does it?

          Just one question left...

          Those numbers after "load averages:" is that per user? Over three weeks/months?

              Nee ;)
              If I'm not mistaken this is 1, 5 and 15 minutes intervals. It means 0.5 processes want to run at the same time.

                Thanks for the info


                After five fucked up hosting suckers I decided to go with Isprime.
                I hope it is the last one...

                      That's what the people say. So I decided to give it a shot, but the no. of users disappointed me a bit. But the server load looks real good.
