I've been chasing almost universal failure of qa/709 and finally tracked it
down to output fields being overflowed and "numbers" running together, e.g.
kenj@vm01:~$ pmcollectl -c 2 -i 0.1
#<--------CPU--------><----------Disks-----------><----------Network---------->
#cpu sys inter ctxsw KBRead Reads KBWrit Writes KBIn PktIn KBOut PktOut
2 0 95706115 357392013103731009 2223225 11872228 1036747864638 4579391
630128 2717987
2 0 95706133 357392034103731009 2223225 11872228 1036747864638 4579393
630129 2717989
But more worryingly, the output from pmcollectl and collectl is not even close
to the same ...
kenj@vm01:~$ collectl -c 2 -i 0.1
waiting for 0.1 second sample...
#<--------CPU--------><----------Disks-----------><----------Network---------->
#cpu sys inter ctxsw KBRead Reads KBWrit Writes KBIn PktIn KBOut PktOut
9 0 340 240 7320 350 0 0 4 40 1 10
30 10 470 2750 10240 350 0 0 4 60 9 60
Is this expected?
This is on a 32-bit system vm01 PCP 3.10.6 i686 Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal)
