1Demonstrations of ustat. 2 3 4ustat is a "top"-like tool for monitoring events in high-level languages. It 5prints statistics about garbage collections, method calls, object allocations, 6and various other events for every process that it recognizes with a Java, 7Node, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Tcl runtime. 8 9For example: 10 11# ./ustat.py 12Tracing...

Here, we ask ustat to print 5-second 24summaries 12 times (for a total time of 1 minute): 25 26# ./ustat.py -C 5 12 27Tracing... Output every 5 secs.
