traps - command used to measure system-wide traps
traps args app params
The traps command measures system-wide traps over the entire run of an application. If the application is the only load on the system, then all the traps can be attributed to that one application. If there are multiple applications running on the system, then it is not possible to attribute traps to a specific one of them.
The traps command is a wrapper for trapstat. Hence traps must be run with the necessary privileges.
The following options are supported:
If gnuplot is available on the path, then produce a graph showing the trap activity over the entire run of the application.
Print help information.
Output the results of the script to the given file, rather than to stdout.
Print version information.
Generate debug output.
The output of the traps command will be the average number of traps per second for the various traps.
