Description Paul Edmon 2017-07-14 12:00:52 MDT
I noticed that sacct and sstat have stats for how much data was read and written but not info about average and max speed that this was done at.  This would be a very handy category to add to the database, especially to diagnose IO woes.
Comment 1 Tim Wickberg 2017-07-14 17:24:14 MDT
Remarking as an enhancement request.

It's an interesting idea.

For these calculations, would the value sampled at AcctGatherNodeFreq be sufficient? I'm not aware of a source for peak / average speed that is already available through the Linux kernel, so we'd need to derive this value internally somehow.
Comment 2 Paul Edmon 2017-07-14 19:16:06 MDT
I think that would be sufficient.  I think any more accurate measure 
would need an actual profiling tool.  This would be just for quick 
estimates.
